Cirque du Soleil is pleased to announce that it will hold the U.S. premiere of its latest big top touring production, OVO in San Francisco. OVO is a headlong rush into a colorful ecosystem teeming with life, where insects work, eat, crawl, flutter, play, fight and look for love in a non-stop riot of energy and movement. The insects' home is a world of biodiversity and beauty filled with noisy action and moments of quiet emotion. OVO is overflowing with contrasts. The hidden, secret world at our feet is revealed as tender and torrid, noisy and quiet, peaceful and chaotic. And as the sun rises on a bright new day the vibrant cycle of insect life begins anew.
From now until Sept. 27, Caltrain customers can join Cirque Club for free and receive $10 off when purchase advance tickets for Level 1, 2 or 3. Click here to buy your tickets.
