A puzzle for physics: six men stand on a seesaw. To the left, a group of five men in their twenties, wearing jeans and casual jackets in shades of grey. They cling to each other, looking suspiciously over towards the sixth man. He has a thick beard and a knowing smile, as he stands with hands in his pockets, holding down his end of the seesaw alone.

Acclaimed Canadian circus company Machine de Cirque stage a humorous and high-energy production where six guys find themselves living in a post-apocalyptic world. They are alone and embark on a quest to find other survivors with the help of a strange machine. Will they succeed?

Demonstrating impressive acrobatic skills and masterful handling of a teeterboard, juggling clubs, a drum kit and even a bath towel, trailblazers Machine de Cirque bring you circus, spectacle, comedy and live music in a witty production that will keep you on the edge of your seat and make up for the perfect Jubilee holiday treat, to enjoy with the family, friends or on a date night out.
