Join the Blue Canvas Orchestra, led by Musical Director Ed Willett, for a heartfelt evening full of holiday cheer. Ed will be joined by Molly Otis, Danielle Diamond, Phil Anich, Nate Bean and Tom Mitchell for a festive compilation of holiday songs that will range from traditional tunes to new songs, stories, and comedy.

This year you'll have the option to choose a dinner before the show— just order the dinner package and choose your Chef Kirk-created meal. Or, skip the meal and just order a cocktail to enjoy during the show. There is nothing like coming home to the comfort & joy of Big Top’s Backstage with the Blue Canvas Orchestra and all of your Big Top friends.
