Wow. They always live up to my expectations and beyong. The acrobats and performers are top class, contributing to an unforgottable exerience.' Canada' you can not go wrong. Their people are very nice, friendly. Anything they do are thriving to reach the highest quality. Sorry guys, I did not take photos. My advice is to go on YouTube and check out the short videos of their performances. It is brilliant!!!

Cirque du Soleil’s OVO returns reimagined, an insect kingdom bursts to life in this surreal love story between a curious fly and a strong-willed ladybug.

Created by Brazil’s Deborah Colker, the first female Cirque director, OVO features choreography rooted in capoeira, samba, and street dance - no spoken word, just pure motion.

Internationally acclaimed since its debut in 2009, with 10 million spectators in 40 countries, OVO blends circus, dance, and visual storytelling into a thrilling spectacle.

Expect soaring aerials, foot juggling, and trampoline acts set to Berna Ceppas’s live Brazilian-fusion score and Liz Vandal’s haute couture-style insect costumes.

This show now makes its way to the Royal Albert Hall for a limited run. Book Cirque du Soleil OVO tickets and get your shot to catch this global phenomenon before it sells out.

The story

In OVO, a mysterious egg lands in a bustling insect ecosystem, sparking curiosity, conflict, and ultimately, a tender romance between a fly and a ladybug. Set against a vivid floral backdrop, this 125‑minute circus play weaves themes of community, transformation, and biodiversity through acrobatics and movement. As this tiny society reacts to sudden change, audiences are drawn into nature’s drama, leaving you wondering what happens when life hatches…

An exceptional show, both in terms of the acrobats' performances and the atmosphere created by the set design and costumes. However, having brought my 5-year-old daughter (who was amazed), I regret that the booking site did not offer a children's rate. I feel cheated. Kind regards.

Some superb acrobatics in a brilliant venue! While the storyline was a bit thin and the music less 'memorable' than for example Alegria, the combination of acrobatics, costumes, music and humour makes for an exceptional, albeit hugely expensive, evening out!

Spectacular staging and memorable opening act, the extortionist spider trapeze and the final jumps up the vertical wall. Two hours of continuous admiration in a fantastic atmosphere.
