December 12–29, 2024 Welcome to Winter Wonder Shoppe, a holiday emporium unlike any other!
Under the brightly-colored Big Top, a series of fantastical transactions unfolds with the world-renowned aerial and acrobatic artists of Cirque Mechanics. Here, a quirky shopkeeper is on a mission to sell his prized shiny blue bicycle to the perfect customer and make someone's holiday wish come true.
Customers fly on a Penny Farthing and juggle with diabolos. Contortionists perform on a turntable powered by unicyclists. An aerialist is lifted by an acrobat inside a giant wheel, and trampoline wall artists defy the laws of physics by virtually flying and walking on air!
ABOUT CIRQUE MECHANICS
Cirque Mechanics is a contemporary theatrical circus, with no animals, where the acrobats interact with innovative mechanical devices to display thrilling acts and tell a compelling story. Cirque Mechanics builds innovative spectacles with an unmistakably Vegas sense of playfulness and grandeur. For every new show, founder and Cirque du Soleil veteran Chris Lashua starts by sketching an elaborate machine – a boiler-trolley, a trampoline-cart, a pedal-driven gantry in Zephyr, a windmill – that serve as the onstage centerpiece. Around this mechanical marvel, the ensemble of aerialists, jugglers and gymnasts builds a theatrical circus experience that showcases the relationship between humankind and the machines we create.
Prices, shows, artists, dates and times are subject to change at any time without notice. The views and opinions expressed within this show are those of the artist(s) and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the Dr. Phillips Center.
