Cirque Du Soleil - Twas The Night Before

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

Sunday at noon doesn't have to mean another routine holiday checklist. 'Twas the Night Before… by Cirque du Soleil can turn it into a storybook adventure with a very real edge of danger and skill. Inspired by A Visit from Saint Nicholas, the show follows a girl whose enthusiasm for Christmas has faded. The performers' extraordinary physical work gives that emotional journey a playful, spectacular form, making it appealing to anyone who likes a little amazement with their seasonal entertainment.

Noon can be the start of a holiday plan built around Cirque's physical artistry. ’Twas the Night Before… by Cirque du Soleil plays Fox Theatre in Detroit on Sunday, December 20, 2026, at 12:00 PM. The company's first holiday production combines acrobatics with the story of a young girl who rediscovers the wonder of the season.

The December 20 noon show at Detroit's Fox Theatre is particularly easy to imagine as a family or multigenerational outing: a recognizable Christmas theme, music with familiar roots, and feats that don't require an explanation to appreciate. Instead of simply telling children about holiday wonder, you can sit beside them while they discover their own favorite moments. Look at tickets for the midday performance and make Sunday the day you all get to see something unusual together.
