Soka Performing Arts Center Announces Two Virtual Family Shows
(Aliso Viejo, CA, March 9, 2021) – Soka Performing Arts Center is pleased to partner with Cirque-tacular Family Circus for two virtual family-friendly shows: SNOWKUS POCUS and SPRING-a-Ding-DING.
SNOWKUS POCUS, available now through April 7, 2021, tells the story of Young Brianna who is whisked away to an enchanted winter wonderland where she encounters the colorful characters that inhabit the magical world of Snowkus Pocus. Enjoy dazzling cirque, breathtaking acrobatic dance, and incredible specialty circus acts performed by Jack Frost, the North Wind, the Snow Queen and the ever-changing Azura of the Sky. This snow-show for the young and the young at heart will amaze, inspire and enchant your imagination… and quite possibly… melt your heart!
All ages will delight in this narrated, winter-themed circus that travels through the seasons from fall to spring. The show is primarily visual with a simple story that most children can easily follow and circus tricks that will impress even the adults!
SPRING-a-Ding-DING, available now through June 1, 2021, tells the story of Young Brianna, a charming and curious girl, hops into an “adventure-through-the-seasons.” During her search for the elusive butterfly that her grandmother says will usher in the next season, Briana encounters a host of adorable woodland characters and their comical antics. Portrayed through charming clowning, dance, and can’t-believe-your-eyes circus specialty acts, audiences of all ages will delight as the glory of the spring season unfolds.
Young children will be dazzled by the engaging characters and bright happy visuals. Older kids and adults that are young-at-heart will enjoy the show’s refreshingly simple charm and wow-factor circus and sideshow tricks.
