OVO

For the longest time I've wanted to experience a Cirque du Soleil performance.  My dear friend Annette and I went to their latest show, "OVO" in Frisco, TX.  I don't even have words.  Okay, you know me too well.  I do have words.  The insect costumes were enchanting.  The Brazilian music - catchy.  The amazing feats - awe-inspiring and ghast-producing.  The script and insect "language" - amusing and cheeky.  Lifesize ants, bees, grasshoppers, fleas, spiders, a lady bug and many more entertained me for a full two and a half hours of pure delight. 

OVO gets my vote as a fantastic production.  I bought the soundtrack.  You can be certain that I will be dancing in my SUV along to the magnificent quirky South American tunes of insects.  I might even add in some arm movements.  A seat salsa?  Don't put it past me. 

I think my favorite act was the rock wall and the trampoline feats.  What energy and outstanding feats!!  If you have a chance to see this production -- Go.  You won't be sorry.  I might even let you borrow the soundtrack.  But only if you're nice - and you give it back.  

Here are some images from the Cirque du Soleil - OVO website:

The grasshopper costumes were ah-maz-ing!

My favorite act - trampolines and a rock wall and bugs going everywhere!

The ants - very cool when they started juggling each other and each other's kiwi!
