Cirque Dreams Holidaze

The classic Christmas lyric “10 lords a leaping” takes on a whole new meaning in Cirque Dreams Holidaze, in which life-size holiday characters like gingerbread men and toy soldiers indeed leap…and flip and tumble and soar. Now in its eighth year under the direction of Neil Goldberg, who has staged productions for the Super Bowl, Holidaze brings the holidays to life on a stage filled with gigantic presents and 30-foot Christmas trees. Incorporating more than 300 costumes into 20 acts, the show celebrates the most wonderful time of the year with a combination of acrobatic and aerial feats, live music, dance and variety acts. Be sure to swing by when it lands at the Boch Shubert Theatre on Dec. 9-11.
