From the Niagara Falls Review:
A memorable summer comes to a close for Cirque Niagara this weekend.
After five months, the high-flying tourist attraction will pack up and head home to Russia Sunday. But not before making a hefty deposit … and a promise to return.
At 1 p.m. in the Main Tent today, the company will make a $50,000 donation to the Niagara Health System Foundation and the Juravinski Cancer Centre Foundation. After that, it’s four more packed houses to end a spectacular first season.
“We started out with sold-out crowds and we’re finishing with sold-out crowds,” said co-owner Gabe Macaluse, who helped convince Russia’s famed Kantemirov circus family to spend the summer in Niagara Falls.
