Machine de Cirque
About the show
Making mayhem of their scrap metal set with a live percussive soundscape, this quirky crew of daredevils manufactures endless comedic madness for The New Victory Theater. More…
Hello? Is anyone out there? Five fellows of "Machine de Cirque" are building a contraption to communicate with the outside world. Thing is, their fun-loving natures keep distracting them! Before you can say "over and out," these awe-inspiring acrobats are swinging by their toes high above the stage, bicycling upside-down and backwards, and flipping and flying off teeterboards.
for a previous production "Your mouth will be agape at times while watching this 90-minute show. At other times you’ll likely find yourself wearing a goofy smile as a quartet of high-spirited circus artists and one energetic percussionist team up to deliver an inspired performance of acrobatics and broad comedy."

for a previous production "Perhaps the number that best combines Machine’s acrobatics and comedic skills was an extended skit in which the performers try to doff bathing suits and still not display full frontal nudity, thanks to a rousing variety of hilarious maneuvers and split-second timing. Yes, they perform with great skill and precision, but they also perform with great joy, humor and heart and that carries off the stage of the Paramount Theatre and finds its way into the appreciative audience."

for a previous production "While there is much to commend about this production, surely there must be theatergoers who yearn for more choices...During a ninety-minute performance, the troupe’s members infuse considerable amounts of joy into episodes of controlled mayhem, even if the first fifteen minutes or so seems more like a warmup...Yes, yet another circus show has come to town with players who display nimble athleticism in all its cheeky glory." Full Review
for a previous production "Machine de Cirque’s simplicity is real, grim, and refreshing...This show succeeds best when it feels personal. A unicyclist taking a dive off the stage to the horror of the audience and then recovers. A bunch of performers make fun of censorship laws with towels. When the Machine’s on, it’s on...Instead of polish, the show feels like it has a porous surface where some less desirable entities have found their way in during the aforementioned unicyclist act."
