A Magical Cirque Christmas brings holiday entertainment to Coral Springs Center for the Arts

Coral Springs, Florida – The holiday season will arrive early in Coral Springs as the Coral Springs Center for the Arts prepares to host A Magical Cirque Christmas, a family-friendly performance combining the excitement of circus, the wonder of magic and the sounds of the holiday season.

The special one-night event is scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 18, at 7:30 p.m., bringing together a group of internationally recognized performers for an evening filled with acrobatics, aerial acts, comedy and Christmas entertainment. Tickets for the performance are now available, with prices starting at $52, including fees, plus applicable taxes.

The production is designed to offer a unique holiday experience by blending traditional circus skills with modern Christmas music. Audiences will see performers take the stage with challenging acts featuring gravity-defying stunts, juggling, contortion, aerial performances and illusions, all set to a soundtrack of popular holiday favorites.

Returning for the 2026 national tour are several performers who have become audience favorites. The lineup includes magician and mentalist Mark Clearview, fourth-generation circus artist Jonathan Rinny, Guinness World Record holder and four-time American Ninja Warrior competitor Leila Noone, and fifth-generation circus performer Christopher Stoinev.

Clearview has built an impressive career through his magic and mentalism performances, including an appearance on Penn & Teller: Fool Us. He was also a finalist on Canada’s Got Talent, where he received the Golden Buzzer for his performance.

Rinny brings decades of circus experience despite beginning his career at a very young age. He first performed in his family’s Argentine circus when he was 5 years old and has since taken his acts around the world. His skills in rolla bolla and unicycle performances have earned recognition, including praise from America’s Got Talent judge Simon Cowell.

Noone will return with her famous hair suspension performances, while Stoinev will showcase his juggling talents as part of a long family tradition in circus arts.

This year’s production will also introduce several new performers joining the touring cast. Aerialist Melissa James will bring her experience from musical theater productions such as Chicago, Hairspray and Mamma Mia, along with collaborations with well-known theatrical director Franco Dragone.

Hand-to-hand acrobatic duo Jack and Anna will also join the show. Jack, a former Canadian national champion in pair acrobatics, and Anna, a graduate of l’École de Cirque de Québec, will combine athletic strength, balance and precision in their performances.
