“An overflow crowd watched… actors turn New Haven cycling history into modern musical mayhem in ‘Head Over Wheels.’””
“Known for its site-specific original works, the company has transformed the outdoor space of The Smokestack, its warehouse on 446A Blake St., into a bike shop set that looks so authentic, cyclists have stopped to ask if a new bike shop has opened.”
