| Apr 17 Australian Chamber Orchestra |
Renowned for inspired programming and the rapturous response of audiences and critics, the Australian Chamber Orchestra embodies the vibrant, adventurous, youthful, and inquiring spirit of Australia. Artistic director and lead violin Richard Tognetti has led the ACO as a flexible and versatile “ensemble of soloists,” on modern and period instruments, as a small chamber group, a small symphony orchestra, and as an electro-acoustic collective. Equally dynamic clarinetist Martin Fröst is a sought-after chamber musician, soloist, and conductor. Their program will include diverse repertoire from Mozart, Steven Reich, Haydn, and a new work commissioned by the ACO from Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood, a frequent ACO collaborator.

| Apr 24 Cirque Mechanics: Pedal Punk |
“Pedal Punk” is a steam punk experience that will charm you with its story and thrill you with its daring; a rowdy circus where the mischief is on wheels. Creator Chris Lashua’s road to the circus began with his daredevil skills as a BMX rider. In this show, Lashua applies his mechanical wizardry to all things pedalpowered. At the heart of the fun is the pedal-driven “Gantry Bike,” a modern-day industrial circus caravan that moves around the stage with a dynamic and quirky ensemble of equilibrists, funambulists, and acrobats. You’ll encounter unicycles that fly, wheel acrobats that hover, cyclists that whirl, pole climbers that soar, and trapeze artists that float.
Additional performance 4/25/2015 same time/location.
