Night Flight’s 2026 FRIGHT NIGHT – A Halloween Circus
Night Flight’s “Fright Night – A Halloween Circus” is back for its 14th year! This October, Night Flight’s Fright Night returns with a queer-gothic-circus spoof of the Phantom of the Opera! Join us for a night of high-flying camp, outrageous scandal, and breathtaking aerial acrobatics. Forget everything you thought you knew about the brooding genius in the mask. Our Phantom isn’t just hiding in the shadows—he’s swinging from the rafters, signing dramatically from the balcony, and desperately trying to seduce the lead baritone while sabotaging every heteronormative trope in sight. Featuring an extraordinary cast of world-class circus artists, this show serves up a wicked cocktail of high-flying danger, sultry gothic horror, and laugh-out-loud melodrama. Expect spine-chilling ghostly acrobats on the trapeze, scandalous duets on aerial chains, and contortionists so flexible they make the Phantom’s mood swings look rigid. Will the Phantom win the heart of his muse? Will the diva get her wig on in time? Will the chandelier flatten the front row? Grab your tightest corset, slip into your most dramatic cape, and join us for the ultimate Halloween night out. Whether you’re a lifelong theater geek, a circus fanatic, or just a creature of the night looking for a wildly funny, jaw-dropping show, This year’s Fright Night promises a hauntingly glamorous evening you’ll never forget! Featuring Jack StockLynn of Sir Cupcake’s Queer Circus, Night Flight’s 2026 Fright Night is a Halloween tradition not to be missed! Tickets vanish faster than the Phantom in a puff of stage fog—secure yours before the theater burns down! Fright Night is rated PG-13 for scares and sexiness.
