Will Miami Beach’s beloved Jackie Gleason Theatre become
a permanent home for Cirque du Soleil? The jury’s still out on that
question, but City Manager Jorge Gonzalez told a crowd of arts lovers why
Cirque would be a good thing for the city and its residents at a March 2

Hundreds of people turned out for the meeting, which was
part of the Miami Beach Arts Trust’s “Evening Bag” series of educational
workshops. |
