Cirque Mechanics takes center stage

(FOX Providence) - The folks from Cirque will take the stage at the Providence Performing Arts Center, as Firstworks presents Cirque Mechanics Birdhouse Factory on Saturday.

Jesse Dryden, along with a performer from the show, Thayr Harris, joined The Rhode Show to talk about Birdhouse Factory, and perform a special show.

About the show:
The incomparable Cirque Mechanics fly, climb and contort their way through rotating gears, trampoline walls and aerial hoops. The international company troupe of veterans from Cirque du Soleil, Pickle Family Circus and Moscow Circus transform PPAC into a wondrous Birdhouse Factory, complete with uniformed unicyclists and acrobatic assembly lines. Inspired by the masterful industrial murals of Diego Rivera, the outrageous illustrations of cartoonist Rube Goldberg, and the gentle political slapstick of Charlie Chaplin, these literally off-the-wall performers delight both adults and children with inspired fun.
