A Show Like No Other!
Inspired from the 9-time award-winning book and 7-time Telly Award holiday film created and directed by renown Broadway Director, Author and Cirque Dreams founder Neil Goldberg.
A sneak preview tour debuted in 2022 in partnership with the US Government’s Armed Forces Entertainment for our service members and their families, exclusively at US military bases worldwide.
In 2023, the live show debuted at the Diplomat Beach Resort in Hollywood, FL in collaboration with LA-based Capture Studio Group, entertaining 35,000 people in 8 days. Ticket holders began by entering the POMP, SNOW, & CIRQUEumstance UNIVERSE. “A wondrous land of enchantment,” hailed South Florida Sun Times of this interactive pre-show, replete with dazzling lights, fantastical characters, and memorable holiday happenings.
Inside the theatre, guests were transported into a fully encompassing 360-degree immersive experience of mesmerizing projections, illustrations, special effects, video and animation, proclaimed by Travel Host Magazine “A fresh synthesis of twenty-first century marvel with a splash of magic and an abundance of entertaining splendor.”
The innovative experience highlighted the riveting live-action center stage where an international cast of 30 astonishing acrobats, aerialists, magicians, singers, dancers, and show-stopping circus stars performed to an original music score while showcasing over 200 wildly creative costumes declared, “Worthy of a Tony Award.”
South Florida Reporter raved “POMP, SNOW & CIRQUEumstance is a combination of drones, projections, magic acts and cirque acts beyond imagination. It’s right up there with The Nutcracker, A Christmas Carol, White Christmas, Elf and all the other holiday classics but with a magical twist.”
The perfect combination of quality theatre and creative entertainment! POMP, SNOW & CIRQUEumstance live shows are expanding into theatres, tours, world class destinations and experiences nationwide.
