The Aqua Theatre Arena
The multi-billion dirham development will also feature a one of-a-kind entertainment theatre. The Al Habtoor Group and Franco Dragone Entertainment Group have teamed up to offer the only permanent water-based theatre production between Las Vegas and Macau. Franco Dragone was the mastermind behind the Cirque du Soleil productions before starting his own company in 2000, and is already a big hit in the UAE, following his Abu Dhabi creation and visual poem ‘Story of a Fort, Legacy of a Nation’.
The venue of the purpose-built theatre, designed by Paris-based designer Jean Rabasse, will open in 2016. The theatre auditorium will be 30 metres high and have a capacity of 1,400 unique seats. Lights, sounds and water elements will come together at the Dubai theatre to create an extravagant and spectacular show.
