PIGEON FORGE, Tenn.—International juggling champion Mark Nizer headlines Dollywood’s new Adventure Theater June 22-27, just one element of the park’s annual KidsFest celebration.
Nizer’s show combines original comedy, world-class juggling, movement, music and technology into a spellbinding production. Whether juggling laser beams at 1000 rpms, or five ping pong balls being thrown 20 feet in the air using only his mouth; or even juggling a burning propane tank, a running electric carving knife and a 16-pound bowling ball, Nizer keeps audience members on the edge of their seats as he makes the impossible possible.
Through Aug. 1, Adventure Theater presents a different family variety show each week. Four shows are performed Tuesday through Sunday in Showstreet Palace Theatre, and all shows are included with park admission.
“For my new Adventure Theater at Dollywood’s KidsFest, I’ve invited some of the most popular and entertaining comedians, jugglers, clowns, ventriloquists and magicians that you’ll see anywhere this summer,” Dolly Parton said. “And with eight different shows throughout the summer, families will definitely want to come and see every one of them!”
