Luminocity, the all-new show from the Big Apple Circus celebrates the vitality of life at the city epicenter, the Crossroads of the World for its 36th season. Catch all the verve, the high-spirits and racing-pulse thrills of various circus artists in one ring, where no seat is more than 50 feet from ringside. The Big Apple Circus presents the New Jersey premiere of Luminocity in its annual Bridgewater engagement at TD Bank Ballpark from Thursday, Feb. 27, through Sunday, March 16.

Venture within the hubbub at the heart of Gotham, where the restless tide of humanity rushes through canyons of skyscrapers and shoals of billboards: The dog-walker, whose rowdy pups perform amazing trick; the rube, a clown-prince among peers, celebrating the mirth of life; teeter-board acrobats flying like fireworks; a chic couple of wire-walkers suspended mid-air for the event; and much more. The celebrated Big Apple Circus Band, under the baton of maestro Rob Slowik, provides the lively musical soundtrack, and Ringmaster John Kennedy Kane will conduct the tour through this luminous cityscape. Run away and join the Big Apple Circus this season for a dazzling, unforgettable spectacle of wonder, merriment and joy.

Returning as Big Apple Circus director for a sixth season, Michel Barette presents a memorable show to entertain audiences of all ages. As choreographer, Vicki Davis returns to share her dancing delight step by step. Sarah Conly returns with her magnificent costume designs. Michael Deegan makes his Big Apple Circus debut as scenic designer. Also returning are sound designer JP Perreaux, who amplifies the Big Top with melodious vibes, and lighting designer Louis Morisset, who energizes the show with flashes of glistening illumination. As always, the Big Apple Circus Band captures the minds and hearts under the musical direction of Rob Slowik.
