Voltaire at The Venetian has a headliner for the holidays. And then some.

British recording star Leona Lewis sets up for an eyebrow-raising, 33-show residency beginning Nov. 1. The series is dubbed “A Starry Night.” Lewis is a Christmas favorite in the U.K.

A belter as a vocalist, Lewis has never performed live in the U.S. She’ll have a chance to deliver her vision over a two-month run closing Jan. 3. Shows start at 8 p.m., doors at 7 p.m.

Voltaire founder Michael Gruber says the broadened holiday theme — three weeks before Thanksgiving, through the Christmas season and landing after New Year’s Day — will spark interest in the production.
