Disney drawn to life5/26/2023 I was worried that the projection effects of the Disney animations would distract the audience from the show. Even Miss Hésitation gives up as Julie treats her with compassion. In the end, Julie overcomes her doubts and finishes her dad’s animation. The “magie nouvelle” shown is one of ethereal beauty, flawless expression, and execution. Her dead father dances with her mom in a scene right of Beauty and the Beast. The most moving part of the show is when Julie imagines her parents dancing. The minions, carrying wastebaskets filled with crumpled-up drawings, are a fascinating work of puppetry. She and her minions show up whenever Julie doubts herself. Miss Hésitation, a giant wadded-up piece of paper with an eraser purse for added effect, is the villain of the show. Throughout the show, aerial acrobatics acts, for which Cirque du Soleil is known, are interwoven with Disney-inspired drawings, animated sketches, a breathtaking performance on a double wheel, puppetry, live music, fairies on unicycles, and much more. Led by a magic pencil and muses, Julie learns the principals of animation, the hard work required, and-most of all-the process of overcoming self-doubt. It is a great experience, so be sure to be at the theater early!ĭrawn to Life tells the story of Julie, a little girl who has lost her dad and discovers an unexpected gift: a sequence of unfinished drawings, left behind by her father. Julie decides to complete the unfinished drawings herself. Four children are chosen from the audience and are integrated in the pre-show. Even though it is inspired by Disney’s animated movie, an original score was written for the show.įifteen minutes before showtime, there is a fun pre-show. Held at the Cirque du Soleil Theater at Disney Springs, it is the first synergy between Cirque du Soleil, Walt Disney Animation Studios, and Walt Disney Imagineering. Cirque du Soleil’s new show, Drawn to Life, is a not-to-be missed performance when visiting Walt Disney World.
