“A delicious confection of charm, sparkle and talent by the sleigh load,” hailed the New York Daily News.

The Broadway-style musical infused with contemporary circus artistry is a show suitable to entertain everyone in the family.

“Audiences nationwide will celebrate this most wonderful time of the year with over 20 of the world’s critically acclaimed and accomplished artists and circus acts all gift-wrapped in over 300 imaginative and one-of-a-kind costume designs,’ according to a release from Dayton Live. “Broadway singers perform original music along with new twists on seasonal favorites such as ‘Deck The Halls,’ ‘Winter Wonderland’ and ‘Jingle Bell Rock.’”

Cirque Dreams Holidaze follows classic holiday characters including ballerinas, nutcrackers, snowmen, penguins, reindeer, ethereal aerialists, gingerbread people, carolers and colossal ornaments.

“As lights dim and music plays, a fantastical cast of holiday storybook characters come to life presenting an elaborate wonderland, invoking the stories behind a child’s eye as they dream on the most magical of nights,” stated the release.

The show includes soaring acrobatics, gravity-defying feats and extravagant theatrical production numbers the Boston Globe hails as “Entrancing…Las Vegas meets family entertainment.”
