One-Night Stand

Sleepless Night Art Event

The last time you pulled an all-nighter, you were high on white powder.

Sugared donuts, people.

Whip out the sugar again, this time for Sleepless Night, tomorrow’s all-night cultural extravaganza from 6 p.m. to 7 a.m.

The free event — a smorgasbord of dance, art, music, film, and more — takes place throughout Miami Beach with shuttles transporting audiences to more than 150 spectacles.

Highlights include Pablo Cano’s Musical Marionettes, a surreal vaudevillian puppet show; Bounce Theory, aerial dance and acrobatics by the Animate Objects Physical Theater; and Spectropia, New York-based artist Toni Dove’s mind-bending, multimedia show.

Expect a range of music (from Jacob Jeffries Band to La Traviata by the Miami Lyric Opera), midnight museum trips (Bass is open ’til 2 a.m.), and a Whole Foods breakfast served at 6 a.m.

Assuming your appetite’s intact.
