| dbo:abstract | Franco Dragone (12 December 1952 – 30 September 2022) was an Italian-born Belgian theatre director. He was the founder and artistic director of Dragone, a creative company specializing in the creation of large-scale theatre shows. He was also known for his work with Cirque du Soleil and Celine Dion. CNN said that Dragone was "one of the key architects of Cirque du Soleil's theatrical style", and that "while Cirque du Soleil's signature was contemporary circus, Dragone's solo work embodies more theater, dance -- and, of course, water" through the use of his "trademark" aquatic stages. Dragone died from a heart attack in Cairo, Egypt, on 30 September 2022 at the age of 69.

(fr) Franco Dragone (Cairano, 12 dicembre 1952 – Il Cairo, 30 settembre 2022) è stato un regista e direttore teatrale italiano naturalizzato belga. Si stima che, tra alcuni show del Cirque du Soleil da lui diretti e quelli della sua casa di produzione, quasi 80 milioni di persone nel mondo abbiano visto uno spettacolo di Franco Dragone. Nel 2015, l'insieme degli spettacoli di Dragone in attività nel mondo rappresenta una capacità di tre milioni di spettatori, con una proiezione di venti milioni per il 2020. È esponente su scala mondiale di una forma originale di teatro che, partendo da simboli e spazi ancestrali, valorizza l'essere umano attraverso l'esaltazione del virtuosismo fisico-acrobatico, l'espressione gestuale e danzata, il ruolo della musica e della visualità pittorica su grande scala, con un ruolo creativo della tecnologia e della scenotecnica moderna per ampi spazi. Dragone è stato insignito di tre Obie Award e di un , oltre ad aver ricevuto la laurea honoris causa dall'Università del Quebec. È il fondatore e direttore artistico della compagnia Dragone, con sede in Belgio a La Louviére, gruppo tra i leader mondiali di eventi e spettacoli teatrali, per la maggior parte in luoghi permanenti appositamente edificati, conciliando l'alta spettacolarità con il rigore della ricerca artistica. La compagnia Dragone occupa 150 dipendenti a La Louviére e una media di altri 3/400 in ciascuno degli spettacoli in attività.

Als onderdeel van zijn lesopdracht creëerde hij met zijn studenten jaarlijkse eindwerkproducties. Daarbij werd hij opgemerkt door Guy Laliberté, stichter van het Cirque du Soleil.

Hij ontwierp parades voor Disneyland Parijs, de show A New Day... van Céline Dion uit 2003 en Le Rêve een show voor hotel en casino Wynn in Las Vegas, een show die sinds de creatie in 2005 onafgebroken (tot maart 2020) wordt opgevoerd en zeven opeenvolgende jaren werd bekroond tot "Best Production Show" in Las Vegas. Volgden show voor entertainment complexen in San Diego, Macau, Abu Dhabi en Antalya. De sinds 2015 nieuwe show van de Lido in Parijs, Paris Merveilles was ook van zijn hand.
