Broadway director and producer Neil Goldberg created POMP, SNOW & CIRQUEumstance, with the all-new holiday stage show based on the popular storybook series and television special of the same name. The show follows the journey of three best friends as they study music, magic and circus arts at a secret university before sharing their talents with the world.
The show features a cast of 26 performers and artists from around the globe in more than 100 costumes performing circus acts, magic illusions and musical storytelling. Santa himself makes an exciting appearance!
