Final Bow Īll in all, I loved the show, and now I want to bring everyone I know to see this show. My favorite character is the Villain, and I think everyone should watch the show to see that specific character because they brought in the most laughs. Of course, the show had some sad moments, but there was great comedic relief throughout the show that would bring laughter into the entire theatre. This section had beautiful moments, and some of them took place in the air. In this section, they showcased different Disney Princesses and their partners. Another part I love is when they created a scene that resembled the ballroom from Beauty and the Beast. I was so amazed at how flawlessly they moved in unison. They were fairies that gracefully did complex choreography on unicycles. They had an entire section of performers on unicycles.

I want to share some of my favorite parts without giving away too much.

They had the classic Cirque du Solei music style and mixed it perfectly with fan-favorite Disney soundtracks. I was worried that the Disney influence would be too much, but it was a perfect blend. The mix between animation and acrobatics was flawless and not overbearing. The way they incorporated Disney was perfect. It was so beautiful to watch her go through this journey and see all the people she met along the way. I won’t give any spoilers, but the letter told her to follow her animator dreams. The story starts with a young girl and her mother going through a book of all her drawings and then finding a letter from her father. I can’t keep track of how many times I gasped or cried, but it was a lot. The performers then showcased their artwork and set them up for a photo opportunity. They gave each child a piece of paper and crayons to draw their own masterpiece. At one point, they brought up kids from the audience to participate. The pre-show began at about 5:15 pm, and it started with the main character getting into place and falling asleep while four goofy animators came out to entertain the guests. Our tickets were $150, and we sat in section 205 in row M these seats were perfect. The Wine and Draft Beer are also served in souvenir cups that say Drawn to Life on them. This drink is strong in the fruity department and gives off tropical vibes. The Ink Blot drink costs $16.00 and is made with Malibu Coconut Rum, Bols Blue Curacao, Minute Maid Premium Lemonade, Pineapple Juice, and Cranberry Juice. Since we arrived early, we had more than enough time to grab the signature drink called the Ink Blot, which came in a souvenir cup. This lot is also helpful if you plan to eat at City Works or go to a concert at House of Blues. We parked on the surface lot, the Watermelon lot, right behind the theatre. I suggest arriving early to find parking and navigate Disney Springs’ crowds. We saw the 5:30 pm showing on a Saturday night. The stage for this production has been transformed into a huge animation table, and the stage is very interactive with many moving parts. This location was where I saw my first Cirque du Soleil show back when I was just five years old because of this, La Nuba will always have a special place in my heart. Drawn to Life opened on November 18th, 2021, at Disney Springs. Disney soon announced a brand new show involving acrobatics and Disney animation.

I remember being in shock when they announced the show would be ending because it had been around for 19 years in a custom-built building. On December 31st of 2017, La Nuba, the previous Cirque du Soleil show, had its final performance.
