It's Christmas in July at the Van Wezel! The Hall has announced three holiday performances for the 2021-2022 season, including the Broadway-style musical with circus artistry, Cirque Dreams Holidaze, the Dave Koz and Friend's Christmas Tour 2021 featuring a brilliant selection of musicians, as well as a special performance by Emmy nominee Michael Londra in Celtic Yuletide - Christmas in Ireland.

CIRQUE DREAMS HOLIDAZE
Monday, November 29, 2021 at 7:30 p.m.
(Note: this show is rescheduled from December 11, 2020)
Cirque Dreams Holidaze lights up the stage in this dazzling family spectacular. This annual tradition wraps a whimsical, Broadway-style musical infused with contemporary circus artistry into the ultimate holiday gift for the family! As lights dim and music plays, a fantastical cast of holiday storybook characters come to life presenting an elaborate wonderland, invoking the stories behind a child's eye as they dream on the most magical of nights. Ballerinas, nutcrackers, snowmen, reindeer, ethereal aerialists, gingerbread people and colossal ornaments fly, juggle and stretch imaginations.
