Bursting with breathtaking acrobatics inspired by the abilities of creatures both real and imagined, this joyful spectacle transforms the everyday lives of insects into an epic celebration of biodiversity, transformation, and community.
In this colourful and vibrant ecosystem, crickets leap skyward, butterflies soar midair, ants juggle with precision, and spiders contort, bend and twist in defiance of gravity: each mind-blowing act showcasing the exceptional talent of the performers. At the heart of this kaleidoscopic journey, a playful love story unfolds when a quirky newcomer fly falls head over wings for a spirited ladybug. The mysterious egg he carries sparks curiosity and wonder among the colony, symbolizing cycles of change, renewal, and possibility.
Music as always is at the heart of the Cirque du Soliel experience and in OVO the story is driven by a rhythmically vibrant and emotionally uplifting Brazilian-inspired live score. With dazzling costumes, immersive staging, high-energy choreography, OVO fills audiences with a sense of wonder that speaks to the child in all of us.
The premiere will take place on 14th January 2026. If you don’t win, there’s still plenty of time to catch the show between 9 January and Sunday 1 March 2026. Tickets are available here.
