CRYSTAL will perform at the UBS Arena from Thursday, July 21 through Sunday, July 24 for FIVE performances.
Mike Newquist, President, Touring Shows Division said: “We are absolutely thrilled to finally bring CRYSTAL back on the road. For two years our performers have been waiting to skate again and experience the joy of the audience once more. It will be an emotional and magical return.”
