Title: Tall Walkers. Acrobatic Antics. And Mechanical Marvels (ft. Chris Lashua | Founder, Cirque Mechanics)
Bio:
A former pro-BMX rider and Cirque du Soleil performer, Chris’ engineering chops and creative energy led him to ‘run away’ with his own circus company, Cirque Mechanics, now based in Las Vegas. A premiere American circus, Chris has adapted many of the mechanical contraptions built for the stage to serve the needs of event planners looking for thrilling and social worthy moments.
Opening Quote:
“If you're the thing at the event that everybody has their phone out taking pictures and video of, that's one marker of it. Of course, people smile, and people tell you good things, but when everybody has to have a picture, and you do a search the next day, and you do the hashtag for whatever that thing is, and your stuff is all over the place, that's a good feeling, right? You're engaging in the way that not only is good for us, but it's what our clients want, too. Right? They want to make sure people connect with it.”
