Gateway's 60th Season shifts into winter gear with 2 spectacular shows - A Holiday Spectacular on Ice and Cirque Le Masque, RIO.

Not a Julliard grad in the bunch, but Cirque Dreams Jungle Fantasy, though it plays at a theatre that once housed Ethel Merman, Alfred Drake and Bombay Dreams (just checking to see if you're paying attention) is not exactly aimed at the typical New York theatre audience and it certainly wouldn't be fair to review it as such. But that's not to say it isn't extremely entertaining and a perfectly fun bit of summer diversion. Kinda like Tarzan, the Musical without the book, music and lyrics.

In the post holiday frenzy, Neil Goldberg's Cirque Dreams Jungle Fantasy offers parents an opportunity to take a break while the tumultuous spectacle unfolds before their children's eyes.
