Cirque du Soleil Twas the Night Before

Cirque du Soleil brings their holiday-themed show, 'Twas the Night Before, to Durham. This production offers a contemporary, acrobatic take on the classic Christmas poem, combining festive storytelling with Cirque's signature blend of aerial artistry and theatrical performance. It’s a chance to see a different side of the company's work, leaning into a specific narrative with their usual high level of physical skill. This performance on Saturday, December 5, 2026, is at the Durham Performing Arts Center. DPAC is a seated theater venue, well-suited for a show of this scale, offering clear sightlines for the acrobatic elements. It's a good option for families or anyone looking for a visually engaging holiday show.
