Performer/producer/director Jens Altheimer, has imagination and energy to burn. He proves it in his wild and wacky production, Squaring the Wheel. Combining circus skills, puppetry, clowning around, magic and physical theatre, this inventive one-man family show celebrates thinking outside the box.
Lonely Leo Cartouche is a bit of a misfit. He tries to find in, but he’s just different. Add to that a real knack for complicating what ought to be perfectly simple, and you’ve got a comical recipe for hi jinx and calamity. Of course, like many eccentric types, Leo has unusual talents. He likes to invent things…mechanical things, crazy and ingenious complex contraptions that captivate and amuse and sometimes confuse.
