Darci Lynne brings Up Close and Personal Tour to The Palace Danbury Theatre

America’s Got Talent winner Darci Lynne will bring her Up Close and Personal Tour to The Palace Danbury Theatre, 165 Main St., for a one-night-only performance, offering audiences her most intimate live show to date.

The all-new production places Lynne and her beloved cast of puppets — including Petunia, Oscar, Andy, and Edna — closer to fans than ever before. Blending ventriloquism, sharp comedy, impressive vocals, and audience interaction, the show delivers a smart, funny, and family-friendly night of entertainment.

Audiences first met Lynne in 2017, when she won America’s Got Talent at just 12 years old, becoming one of the youngest champions in the show’s history. Her Golden Buzzer audition quickly became one of the most-watched moments in the series and earned high praise from judges, including Simon Cowell, who called her a star in the making.

Now 21, Lynne returns to the stage with a refreshed and more personal approach to her performances. The Up Close and Personal Tour highlights her growth as a performer, pairing polished ventriloquism with confident comedy and strong vocals while maintaining the charm that first captivated television audiences.
