Cirque du Soleil Show,‘Drawn to Life,’ Coming to Disney Springs

Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group and Disney Parks, Experiences and Products are thrilled to announce “Drawn to Life” will be the name of the highly anticipated, new family friendly show coming to Walt Disney World.

This new show follows the story of Julie, a courageous and determined girl who discovers an unexpected gift left by her late father: an unfinished animation piece.

Guided by a surprising pencil, she embarks on an inspiring quest sprinkled with her Disney childhood memories. Through this journey, she learns to imagine new possibilities and animate the story of her future.

The show is a result of years of research and extraordinary collaboration that included extensive visits to Disney theme parks, Walt Disney Archives, Walt Disney Imagineering, Walt Disney Animation Studios, Pixar Animation Studios, The Walt Disney Family Museum, as well as hands-on work between Disney animators and Cirque du Soleil.

ln fact, the Cirque du Soleil teams collaborated extensively with legacy animators to create the show.

Cirque du Soleil “Drawn to Life” will transport guests into the world of Disney animation in Cirque du Soleil’s signature style. This entirely new experience will wow Walt Disney World guests and Cirque du Soleil fans, both young and old, while bringing timeless Disney stories to life in an unforgettable new way.

With an international cast of more than 65 artists, the Cirque du Soleil theater located in Disney Springs (previously home to Cirque’s “La Nouba”), will welcome up to 1,580 spectators for each show, five days a week.
