Friends & Families ... Travelers & Vacationers ... Tickets To The Big Apple Circus ... On One Night Only Will Benefit Citymeals-on-Wheels

NEW YORK, Nov. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- For one night only – on Friday, December 13, 2013 – New Yorkers and visitors to the Big Apple will have an opportunity to combine their love of the circus with a good deed. 100% of all tickets purchased for The Big Apple Circus' 6:30 p.m. show will benefit Citymeals-on-Wheels and provide thousands of frail, homebound elderly New Yorkers with a lifeline of nutritious home-delivered meals and companionship.

With no seat more than 50-feet from ringside, this season's Big Apple Circus show, Luminocity, will dazzle audience members with the "high-spirits and pulse-racing thrills of the World's Greatest Circus Artists." Performances by high-flying trapeze artists, clowns, jugglers, an irrepressible flimflam man, acrobats, a cavalcade of magnificent steeds and wire-walkers make up the fun-filled, action-packed two-hour event.

"Holidays can be an especially lonely time for most Citymeals recipients who have outlived their family and friends and for whom the meal deliverer is often the only person they see all day," said Beth Shapiro, Executive Director of Citymeals-on-Wheels. "On December 13th, thanks to a very generous friend of Citymeals, one hundred percent of every Big Apple Circus ticket purchased for the 6:30 p.m. show will directly provide nutritious meals and friendly visits to our frail, vulnerable homebound neighbors."
