Experience
Foot Juggling
(Reserve | Apr.22.1999 - Jan.17.2010)


Skill and coordination are gracefully highlighted in this number in which a young girl balances and twirls Chinese umbrellas on the soles of her feet.

The Umbrella, or foot jugling act, is one of the oldest traditions of the Chinese circus. Cirque du Soleil first featured a variety of this act in its 1990 production Nouvelle Experience, which went on to become one of the most celebrated acts from that show. For Dralion, the Umbrella act is considered an act-in-rotation, which means it will only be seen if and only if another main performance can not go on as planned. The Umbrella Act continues to rotate in and out of Dralion to this day, depending on which cast is currently traveling with the show.
