This location joins many others that has replaced their themed costumes with a generic one: black pants and a plain green dress shirt

I stand corrected, the cast costumes are themed

Early buzz is good. I had no doubt - Cirque Du Soleil is world class. I am a very proud Canadian who will always shout Cirque's praises, and I am so very grateful they survived the pandemic.

Ive just got back from the show. The Disney influence definitely helped to pull the story together much more cohesively than in some other CdS shows I've seen.
On top of that its as spectacular, creative, colourful and musical as the best CdS have done.

The show’s director, Michel Laprise, did the excellent grand chapiteau show “Kurios” before this.
Happy to hear it’s being well recieved.

I'm so glad I was able to see a live performance of La Nouba during my Senior Trip between late April-early May of 2015. I instantly fell in love with Cirque du Soleil after seeing it for the first time. There were moments in that show that gave me serious chills. I forgot the name of the act, but it featured an opera singer on top of a stage, while it was set to a rock style music and the stage was lifted up. For those that seen that show, can somebody help me remember the name of the act? Because that was my favorite moment in La Nouba.
Anyway, when I manage to return to WDW in the future. I will definitely be checking out Drawn to Life (since I'm a big fan of hand-drawn/2D animation).

Kurios looks like it will be spending some time in North America next, I need to see it in person!

Thanks for sharing this video @the.dreamfinder. In honor of Drawn to Life debuting at Disney Springs, I'll be watching "Kurios" and "Amaluna" (via Cirque's official Youtube channel") tomorrow after I finish watching "Adventure Thru the Walt Disney Archives" on Disney+

I saw the show last night and it's SO GOOD.
Its opening (no spoilers) is DISTINCTLY Disney animation and the rest of the show has a wonderful balance of Disney touches without being "in your face Disney" and is 100% Cirque. There are also nods to La Nouba in a couple of the songs and there is a DEFINITE shout-out to La Nouba in one scene.
Favorite acts (I know I'm going to get the names wrong): Aerial pencil, death wheel and the mom/dad dancing scene (it's beautiful)

Quick question, how long is the show? I have tickets for the 5:30pm show on January 6th. I had forgotten I had purchased the
tickets and I have a 7:30pm reservation for dinner at the French restaurant in Epcot. What are my chances of being able to keep
the reservation?
