A few of the acts are located toward the back of the stage, for what looks like safety reasons. My chief complaint comes down to staging. What I like about the use of animation is that it all drives the story. Drawings are spread about the desk or descend from above the stage at various times giving the story another canvas to play out on. In fact, the entire stage represents an animator’s desk. Their research is evident in how some iconic, but also rare, animation is surfaced in the show. The creative team spent time researching at Disney theme parks, Walt Disney Animation Studios, the Walt Disney Archives and the Walt Disney Family Museum. About “Drawn to Life” by Cirque du Soleil It can be hard to know what to look at, which is actually what Drawn to Life’s creators want as they use action in one place to distract you from a scene change or prop movement somewhere else. Like other Cirque du Soleil shows, you are totally immersed in the story, there are moments when things are going on all over the theater. It also targets families more squarely than the typical show, because of that, some of the thrills feel a little more contained, the humor a little less risque, and the clowns less confronting. “Drawn to Life” isn’t as high concept as some of Cirque du Soleil’s shows. It’s a fun coincidence that it’s also the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World. If you’ve ever seen a Cirque du Soleil show, “Drawn to Life” is the 50th production from the Montreal, Canada founded company so there have been many chances, then you’re familiar with what to expect.
