Pedal Powered Silly Sideshow: The Water Cycle

Bureau Of Silly Ideas

Circus, Family, Installation, Theatre

The Water Cycle is a street show that combines eccentric machinery, absurd theatre and carnivalesque audience participation! The Water Cycle brings into ridiculous reality the things that we all learnt about in primary school: the weather.

Bureau Of Silly Ideas has noticed that with everything going on in the world, the Great British people have stopped talking about the one thing that has always been top of mind in our nation: The Weather.

We all learnt about the water cycle in primary school, but now it’s time to ride it for yourself! In this sideshow style game, use pedal power to move water up into the clouds and make it rain on some unsuspecting passers-by underneath. We guarantee that once you’ve ridden The Water Cycle, the weather won’t be small talk anymore!
