April 7, 2009 (Toronto, ON) – Clay & Paper’s new bicycle-based theatre project Cyclops: Cycling Oriented Puppet Squad, rolls out this summer! This mobile performance squad will animate and energize environmental and cycling events across Toronto from May to August, bringing theatre and cycling enthusiasm to the unsuspecting public.

As we take our unique brand of theatre to the streets, we will develop new performance venues and enliven Toronto’s public spaces while drawing attention to urban environmental issues and promoting active living. Thanks to funding from the Ontario Trillium Foundation, Cyclops will be bringing the bicycle revolution to the city for the next three summers!

Want to be a Cyclops? Auditions for our performance squad start April 20, 2009. Please visit our web site for application details: www.clayandpapertheatre.org. Deadline for applications is Friday April 17, 5 PM.
