Cirque Du Soleil - Twas The Night Before

Cirque Du Soleil - Twas The Night Before at Fox Theatre - Detroit

You don't need to be a circus expert to appreciate the sight of someone suspended high above a stage. 'Twas the Night Before… by Cirque du Soleil brings that kind of astonishment into a holiday story about rediscovering joy. The young girl at its center has become tired of Christmas magic. The twenty-six artists surrounding her make a persuasive case for giving wonder another chance, using acrobatic disciplines rather than ordinary dialogue to capture your attention.

Cirque's physical artistry has a seasonal story to tell. 'Twas the Night Before… by Cirque du Soleil builds its entire creative vision around Clement Clarke Moore's cherished poem A Visit from Saint Nicholas, following a jaded young girl who's lost her sense of holiday wonder. The young girl's rediscovery gives the acrobatics a holiday theme to follow.

Sunday, December 20 at 3:00 PM offers a chance to bring someone to Detroit's Fox Theatre who might never choose a conventional musical. There are familiar Christmas sounds for the sentimental, daring physical feats for the thrill-seeker and a story to hold everything together. The afternoon doesn't need a complicated plan: find a seat, settle in and watch the unexpected unfold. See what ticket options are available for this Cirque matinee and give your weekend a memorable finish.
