Discovering the Magic Behind Cirque du Soleil's Latest Show: Drawn to Life

As a chartered professional accountant with a passion for arts and creative content, I've had the privilege of working with the incredible team at Cirque du Soleil. One of my favorite meetings was when we reviewed creative content for upcoming shows, and I had the pleasure of being part of an amazing creative team.

The start of the pandemic in 2020 forced us to cancel all 45 of our shows around the world and fire 4,679 employees, which was a devastating 95% of our staff. Despite this challenging time, my interest in arts and the capabilities of our creative team only grew stronger.

With over six years of experience at Cirque du Soleil, I've had the opportunity to work on various aspects of the business, including strategy, operations, and of course, finance. My background extends beyond just financial management, as I've been involved in different parts of the company, showcasing my versatility.

Recently, we launched a new show called Drawn to Life presented by Cirque du Soleil and Disney at Disney Springs (formerly Downtown Disney). This production is a love letter to the art of Disney Animation, celebrating life in all its motions and emotions. The show tells the story of a determined girl who discovers one last gift left by her animator father: a sequence of unfinished drawings.

As audiences embark on this whimsical journey, they'll be transported into an astounding world where the art of Walt Disney Animation is reinterpreted through Cirque du Soleil's innovative design, acrobatic performances, dazzling choreography, and eclectic costuming. The show features all-new Disney animation and an original score inspired by timeless Disney music.

Drawn to Life invites families to experience a first-of-its-kind creative collaboration between iconic memory-makers Cirque du Soleil and Disney. With its high-flying, mind-blowing exuberance, this show is absolutely alive with the magic of Cirque du Soleil. The stage is transformed into a giant animation table, where imagination knows no bounds.

Get ready to set your imagination in motion and join us on this unforgettable leap into Drawn to Life. With its unique blend of artistry, innovation, and family-friendly entertainment, this show is sure to leave you spellbound. Don't miss out on the opportunity to experience the magic behind Cirque du Soleil's latest masterpiece!
