We hope it will mean as much to our fans as it has to us-it’s not just our show now, it’s theirs, too.” The show also marks the first theatrical collaboration between Cirque du Soleil, Walt Disney Animation Studios, and Walt Disney Imagineering. “This collaboration has been unlike anything we’ve done before.

It seems like Drawn to Life was announced about a million years ago as the new show coming to Cirque du Soleil at Disney Springs. There is also new animation created by Disney Animation artists, led by animation director Eric Goldberg, best known for characters such as the Genie in Aladdin. Drawn to Life is driven by 10 acrobatic acts alongside animation from films like Frozen, Beauty and the Beast, and Cinderella.

As she dives into the world of drawing, guided by a helpful pencil, Julie embarks on a quest filled with childhood Disney memories. The story follows Julie, a girl who discovers a gift-an unfinished animation-left by her father.
