    The story

    In Cirque du Soleil ’Twas the Night Before, young Isabella wonders if she’s outgrown her family’s Christmas ritual of reading the famed poem. But a sudden flurry of winter magic pulls her into a dreamlike world filled with nimble acrobats, mischievous reindeer, and swirling snow. As she searches for her father, each spectacle nudges her toward the meaning she thought she’d lost. Whether she finds it before the holiday dawn breaks, well, that’s the mystery she must unravel.
