Cirque Mechanics from the United States will perform "Pedal Punk" in December, bringing a fun-filled show to Hong Kong that is suitable for audiences ages 3 and above.
 
     The stories that make up "Pedal Punk" are told through circus acrobatics, mechanical wonders and a bit of clowning around. Audiences will experience the excitement, artistry and surprises that occur when a wacky bike shop mechanic interacts with cyclists and bikes, ultimately repairing more than broken bicycle parts. "Pedal Punk" promises to provide an entertaining acrobatic experience for audiences looking for fun and excitement.
 
     Founded in 2004, Cirque Mechanics quickly established itself as a premiere American circus, with its unique approach to performance, lively storytelling and innovative mechanical staging. Although inspired by the modern circus, Cirque Mechanics finds its roots in the mechanical and its heart in the stories of American ingenuity.
