There was a time when the American spirit of ingenuity spawned countless wonderful and useful, and sometimes useless, creations.
Machines grand and miniscule were fashioned because they could be, because Americans had the genius, the creativity and the
materials to make them. Some of those inventions remain a part of the culture and some have fallen into obscurity. It's the
mechanical creations of days gone by that Cirque Mechanics cares about. Cirque Mechanics uses those ill-fated tools to create
an astonishingly unique circus show, a show that has stunned audiences everywhere. Score Cirque Mechanics tickets from StubHub to see the show live in

Founded in 2004 by Boston native and German Wheel artist, Chris Lashua, Cirque Mechanics has quickly become the circus
act du jour. After the success of Lashua's collaborative project with the Circus Center of San Francisco, Birdhouse Factory,
Lashua wanted to create something more, something that took the best of today's circus acts and injected it with a healthy
dose of history and American ingenuity. Thus Cirque Mechanics was born. Cirque Mechanics quickly established itself as an
innovative American circus act, and its shows are proving to audiences what is possible when creativity is allowed to flourish!
