Drawn to Life By Cirque du Soleil & Disney shake up the show with new Act and Performers

Since debuting at Disney Springs on November 18, 2021, Drawn to Life By Cirque du Soleil & Disney has been an instant hit, wowing audiences at each performance.

And now rather than resting on their laurels, the show is shaking things up with exciting new additions to the already spectacular show.

The new additions to the show include an all-new acrobatic act, aerial artists and a “flying” guitarist.

"Icarian Games" is a brand new act in the show that will take place in Disney’s animated forests – and the mysterious creatures that inhabit them – featuring two Ethiopian artists performing acrobatic skills in which one lies on their back and uses their legs and feet to toss the other performer in the air.

The "Dream of Colours" act has been re-imagined to include Aerial Hoop artists taking to the air, performing breathtaking movements, a tribute to the ink and paint animation artists, featuring dramatic colors “painted” by human trapeze artists on a suspended wheel.

Another change to the show is a “flying” guitarist who is joining the Rhythmic Gymnastics act, soaring above the acrobats as they flip through the air.

In addition to introducing new performers, and an entirely new act, new musical compositions have been added to the show that will set a magnificent tone for the acts.

The show is a first-of-its-kind creative collaboration between iconic memory-makers Cirque du Soleil and Disney.

The show tells the story of a determined girl who discovers one last gift left by her animator father: a sequence of unfinished drawings. Guided by a magical pencil and a quirky troupe of imaginative muses, she embarks on an inspiring quest filled with her childhood Disney memories.

Drawn to Life invites you into an astounding world where the art of Walt Disney Animation is experienced like never before - a live acrobatic journey where the stage is transformed into a giant animation table.

This love letter to the art of Disney Animation celebrates life in all of its motions and emotions. during the Cradle Wheel act, which pays tribute to artist, animator, and designer Mary Blair, the art of classic Disney animation is reinterpreted through Cirque du Soleil’s innovative design, acrobatic performances, dazzling choreography, and eclectic costuming alongside all-new Disney animation and an original score inspired by timeless Disney music.

The show is absolutely alive with all the high-flying, mind-blowing exuberance that Cirque du Soleil is famous for.
