Drawn to Life at Disney Springs has a new finale
Drawn to Life by Cirque du Soleil is celebrating two years at Disney Springs with a new finale honoring the heartwarming father-daughter relationship at the heart of its storyline.
The family-friendly show tells the story of Julie and her father (a Disney animator) through Walt Disney Animation Studios’ 100-year storytelling history. It celebrates beloved stories and characters through innovative design, acrobatic performances, choreography, music, and brand-new animation from Disney artists.
The new ending features a swing-to-swing act with artists performing new stunts, acrobatics, and choreography. The artists representing Julie and her father perform in costumes created by costume designer Philippe Guillotel that were inspired by the art of drawing and animation.
“The new finale swing-to-swing act celebrates the completion of the triumphant journey of Julie as she finishes the lines started in an animation left to her by her father to forever link them to one another,” said Justin Sullivan, artistic director for Drawn to Life. “The daring acrobats in the number are kaleidoscopic animated renditions of Julie and her father soaring, flying, and swinging through the air in a touching and thrilling display of amplitude, connection and skill.”
Cirque du Soleil has a tradition of creative enhancements and evolutions. Earlier in 2023, Drawn to Life introduced new Icarian Games acrobatics, aerial hoops, and a flying guitarist.
Drawn to Life is performed at 5:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays and at 1:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. on Sundays. Tickets are available through December 2024.
