The holidays are in full swing in New York City, which means Times Square is teeming with tourists anxious to see a good show. Whether you’re visiting or a local looking for a live performance to celebrate the season, New Victory Theater’s “White Gold” is a sure bet. While most productions at the theater are created with children in mind, this is a masterpiece for guests of all ages.
Playing at Stage 42 (New Victory Theater’s sister venue), the family-friend Cambodian circus troupe Phare, takes audiences on an awe-inspiring journey of acrobatics, stunning choreographer, and death-defying stunts. The main attraction? Rice, of course.
As Cambodian’s most popular grain and star of most meals, the tasty starch is a mainstay in kitchens around the Asian country. “White Gold,” founded by refugees, is a brilliant love letter to rice and it’s cultural impact — making it a major component of the show. The entertaining routines transform the tiny grains into mesmerizing props, creating a feast for the eyes.
What’s more, the show also incorporates live painting mixed with juggling, enchanting music, and hypnotic dance.
If you’re on a hunt for a show that the entire family will enjoy, satisfy your appetite for top tier theater and make your way to “White Gold.” It’ll nourish your mind and spirit.
“White Gold” at Stage 42 runs now through December 30, 2024. Click here for tickets and more information.
