Fusing the 3000 year-old tradition of Chinese acrobatic arts with the multidisciplinary approach of Cirque du Soleil, Dralion draws its inspiration from Eastern philosophy and its never-ending quest for harmony between humans and nature. The show's name is derived from its two emblematic creatures: the dragon, symbolizing the East, and the lion, symbolizing the West.
In Dralion, the four elements that govern the natural order take on a human form. Thus embodied, each element is represented by its own evocative colour: air is blue; water is green; fire is red; earth is ochre. In the world of Dralion, cultures blend, Man and Nature are one, and balance is achieved.
What the media say about the show:
"I would recommend Dralion highly tothose who can appreciate the artistry and acrobatic talent displayed in the show." - The Examiner
"Truly a wonderful experience." - Reading Eagle
"Cirque's unpretentious "Dralion" offers one visual gravity-defying stunner after another." - The Philadelphia Inquirer
