Squonk Opera: Cycle Sonic

This FREE! event is an outdoor concert like nothing you’ve ever seen before! Squonk Opera’s original chamber rock music is a performance in motion as double-decker, decorated stages complete with musicians, flags, and sculptural, moving legs and giant animated bikers are propelled with bicycles! Presented as a part of the ArtBeat arts festival.

Cycle Sonic celebrates bicycles with human-powered stages, propelled by their original chamber rock music…and their own legs! Sprouting  bulb-horns and whirligigs, whistles and bells, the parade floats become instruments of music through the swirl and thump of wheel and pedal. A pageant of double-decker bike-stages creates a merry Cycle Sonic ruckus. Giant, animated bikers circle the audience, with backdrops of undulating flags and 20-foot legs pumping with the rhythm of sustainable power. With no carbon footprint, Cycle Sonic combines the thrill of a live concert with the world of everyday transit.

Additional FREE! performances will take place:

Thursday, April 4, 5:30 PM – Columbus Public Library, Macon Road
Friday, April 5, 5:30 PM – RiverCenter, Illges Plaza
Saturday, April 6, 10AM and Noon – RiverCenter, Illges Plaza
