A Magical Cirque Christmas in Sandy Springs: Acrobatics, Magic and a Pre-Show Lounge
A Guinness World Record hair-suspension artist shares the advertised bill with acrobats, aerialists, contortionists, jugglers, comedy and magic. A Magical Cirque Christmas comes to Byers Theatre on Saturday, November 21, 2026, with the show at 8 p.m. and doors opening an hour earlier.
A variety bill, not a published running order
The Sandy Springs PAC describes a holiday variety show built from distinct performance skills: aerial work, contortion, juggling and displays of strength and agility, alongside comedy and magic. It also calls out a Guinness World Record hair-suspension artist. That range is the clearest guide to the evening; the listing does not give a complete performer roster or say how the acts are sequenced.
The soundtrack is described as modern holiday music, including modern versions of popular Christmas classics. No song list is published, so visitors can expect a seasonal musical backdrop without relying on particular songs or a concert-style setlist.
The PAC says the production has been presented for more than five holiday seasons. For this Sandy Springs date, its description emphasizes the range of circus disciplines rather than a single story or one continuous act.

Mark Clearview is the named host
The PAC identifies Mark Clearview as host and comedy magician. His biography describes more than 20 years in the field and performances at over 1,000 venues. It also notes a residency at the Bellagio in Las Vegas and his run to the finals of Canada’s Got Talent after receiving a Golden Buzzer from Howie Mandel.
Those credits provide a specific point of reference for the bill’s magic and comedy. They do not amount to a full cast list: the venue does not identify every artist appearing in each specialty.

An early-evening choice in City Springs
The optional Park View Lounge opens at 7 p.m., an hour before the performance, on the PAC’s Balcony level. Its buffet includes appetizers and desserts, with soft drinks, coffee and a private cash bar. Lounge purchases are cashless. A pass costs $50, and guests also need a valid ticket to the show; lounge entry is limited to people 21 and older.
The lounge is a separate add-on, not a required part of the performance plan. Passes can be ordered through Sandy Springs PAC up to four days before the event, or may be available at the lobby welcome table on show day. PAC members receive lounge admission at no charge and a discount on guest passes when logged in during purchase. Intermission access depends on availability.
Byers Theatre is part of City Springs, a district developed as a walkable center for arts, dining and retail. Restaurant Row is within walking distance and includes options such as Caribbean and Thai restaurants, sushi, pizza, a wine bar and an Irish pub. CityBar & Café also serves drinks and a limited bar menu an hour before PAC performances, giving visitors alternatives to the separately ticketed lounge.

Check the total before paying
Sandy Springs PAC lists tickets from $69.50 and says that price includes taxes and fees. Its listing describes the pricing as all-in, but the PAC FAQ separately says a variable service fee is charged on top of the ticket price and that applicable sales tax is included in the published price. City Springs lists a range of $62.50–$84. The pages do not reconcile these descriptions, so confirm the amount at checkout.
The Park View Lounge pass is an additional $50 purchase and does not replace the performance ticket.
