Big Ticket Giveway: Win Tickets to Cirque de Soleil's Wintuk
We've had a great week of giveaways this week and made some very happy Holidays for a few folks. While there's still time to enter our giveaway for a $100 Best Buy Gift card (closing Thursday, December 23 at 10PM), today we're giving away 4 tickets to Cirque de Soleil's Wintuk.
OUR LATEST VIDEOS
Wintuk takes Canadian Cirque de Soleil's trademark acrobatics and stagecraft and injects it with a dose of Caillou to make a holiday show that no kid can resist. Yes, this is Cirque slightly toned down for the kids, but they LOVE it and even muted Cirque is better than most kid shows you're gonna see.
Highlights of the show for me were the giant snow creatures, both monsters and birds which were elegant and incredible to watch, but my kids liked the whole thing. Of course, their favorite part for sure was the amazing snow storm at the end where tons of paper snowflakes come floating down over the whole audience. It will have you leaving the theater filled with the magic of the holidays. Going straight from there to another holiday activity like the holiday windows at Macy's would be great.
This show has one scary part with the snow monsters. I would recommend it for ages 4 and up.
We're giving away a family four pack of tickets to see Wintuk at the WaMu theater at Madison Square Garden for the Wednesday, december 29th show at 7:30 PM. What a great way to spend the Holidays.
To enter to win these tickets to Wintuk just leave us a comment on this post by Friday, December 24, 2010 at noon telling us what you will be doing this Holiday Break. You must sign your comment with a valid email address. The winner will be contacted by email and must respond within 24 hours in order to claim their prize or another winner will be selected.
