Later that same year in Orlando, Florida, Cirque's third resident show was inaugurated at the Downtown Disney section of the Walt Disney World Resort. In a partnership with Disney's former CEO Michael Eisner, Cirque created its first permanent freestanding theater to hold 1,671 attendees. 160 feet high and designed to resemble a white tower with metal turrets on the outside, the 70,000 square foot interior is made to project the appearance and atmosphere of a travelling show's "Grand Chapiteau".
Conceptually, Dragone and Laliberté decided to portray La Nouba as a fairy tale. Assistant designer Michel Crête noted "We were at Disney, so we were influenced by a world of fables." The set design is built to give the perception of an old attic where the performers tell the audience a story. La Nouba", which originates from the French phrase "faire la Nouba" which means "to party", contrasts stories through two groups of people, one colourful and the other monochromatic.
