Big Apple Circus at Lincoln Center

After declaring bankruptcy in 2016 to widespread lamentations, the family-friendly circus came bouncing back to life at Lincoln Center a year later, and now returns for its 48th season "bolder, brighter, and more breathtaking than ever." The spectacle will include the trapeze artistry of the Flying Maluendas’ from Chile, the high-energy acrobatics and human pyramids of Ukraine’s Bingo Troupe, the martial arts skills and precision choreography of the Kung Fu Boys, and more. "With unforgettable feats of strength and skill, this all-new show brings the magic of the circus to life," promises organizers. The show wraps up its winter run on Sunday, January 4.
