    Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey pulls into UTC McKenzie Arena Thursday, March 11 thru Sunday, March 14, with Illuscination, a fantasy-filled world where thrills, wonderment, and unbelievable magic intersect with the outlandish fun of the circus.  The dynamic cast of Ringling Bros. Presents Illuscination invites you to join them and on a mystifying adventure as Illuscinator David DaVinci bridges the believable world in which we live, to the seemingly impossible one of the circus.

    David entertains audiences with eye-popping illusions, mind boggling transformations, and unique up-close magic.  This modern Houdini even attempts to escape a straightjacket while suspended three stories in the air over a den of lions.

    In an intimate setting, where the action takes place just feet away from your seat, audience members’ eyes will witness astonishing acrobats, awesome aerialists, and amazing animals, including majestic Asian elephants, a pride of lionesses, horses, ponies, and even a rare white lion.
