Experience
Dralions
(1999-2015)


A blend of the traditional Chinese dragon and lion dances, Dralions, as reworked by Cirque du Soleil, takes on new scope here. In a dynamic and energetic tumbling sequence, the artists come on stage on wooden balls which they roll under their feet and on which they perform somersaults. Five dralions perform acrobatics around them.

A signature of Chinese circus, the Dralions make their appearance. Presented as a blend of the more traditional dragon and lion dances, the Dralions - half dragon, half lion creatures - take over and performe some of the best feats of precision anywhere. In a dynamic and energetic tumbling sequence, three artists come on stage on wooden balls which they roll under their feet and perform somersaults on. The signature of the performance is when the five Dralions climb on one single wooden ball and, by working together, must get the ball from one end of a teeterboard to the next!

The Dralions act features a song not found on the soundtrack CD. The frolicking fiddle solos, the harmonically filtered synthesizer bass melody, and the upbeat cadence gives the song as playful of a feel as the cuddly Dralion creatures romping onstage.
