Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Cirque du Soleil's twelfth production, which opened in December 1998, was a landmark for the company in two ways. It was their first non-touring show outside of Las Vegas, and the first to be mounted at a Disney resort: Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, at a custom-built theater at the Downtown Disney (later Disney Springs) shopping/dining/entertainment district. As well, it was the final Cirque show written and directed by Franco Dragone, who had pulled these duties for most of them up to that point. Amazingly, it premiered less than five months after "O" had arrived on the other side of the country.Though no Disney elements appear in the show, Dragone and his collaborators took inspiration from that company's knack for re-telling fairy tales and came up with a Cinderella story of their own. Once upon a time, a Cleaning Lady opens the door to an attic filled with strange, colorful personages ("Cirques"), inadvertently causing their world to collide and mingle with the ordinary world of "Urbains" she comes from. Eventually, everyone will be living Happily Ever After.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The name "La Nouba" comes from the French term faire la nouba, which means "to live it up" or "party".While it was still running at Walt Disney World, this show was filmed and released on DVD in 2004, and is currently the only resident show that can claim this distinction.La Nouba's final performance at Disney Springs was on December 31, 2017, capping off a nineteen-year run. Disney has confirmed that a new Cirque du Soleil production, with a Disney animation theme, will replace it once the theater has been renovated and updated. | |

Once Upon a Time | |
| La Nouba (Theatre) / int_10a9cdee | comment |
Once Upon a Time: The title of the song for the post-prologue act (formerly German wheel, later skipping ropes), which kicks off the action proper; the soundtrack album's version starts with a child reciting a bedtime story that starts with these words. | |

Carrying a Cake | |
| La Nouba (Theatre) / int_6138b3cd | comment |
Carrying a Cake: Defied in the original version of the chair balancing act, in which the cake is successfully carried up and up the tower by the performer (by balancing it on his head, etc.). | |

| La Nouba (Theatre) / int_67a70f33 | comment |
Creepy Circus Music: While the act it supported (chair balancing) was lighthearted, "A La Lune" has aspects of this at the beginning, including a menacing snatch of the famous "Entrance of the Gladiators". | |

Large Ham | |
| La Nouba (Theatre) / int_823c6e3e | comment |
Large Ham: The Green Bird, at least in the DVD version. According to the performer, the character originally had a scene where she would cry out in alarm and faint. Then one day when she was feeling angry about things in general, the performer decided the character should totally freak out before collapsing. The audience loved it so it stayed in. | |

Non-Ironic Clown | |
| La Nouba (Theatre) / int_fd9763d3 | comment |
Non-Ironic Clown: The Green Bird and several other Cirques have appearances and/or personalities that fit this trope. The primary clown duo play out comic scenarios (astronauts, mother with baby carriage, etc.). The Nuts are a four-mime quartet who weave in and out of the action. The cheery Walker serves a similar function. The male half of the Lovers (dancers) is a Pierrot clown. An Acrobatic Pierrot heads up the climactic power track/trampoline number. | |
