More information about Cirque du Soleil - Ovo
Ovo is a show for all ages, the engaging choreography and the touching love story at its centre will be a hit with all audience members.
This brilliant production, directed and choreographed by Deborah Colker, and artistic director is Lydia Harper.
“In Brazil, we have the rainforests. I appreciate nature a lot. I like to replicate nature and to incorporate nature with art—the shapes, forms, textures, colors,” Colker said of the show’s inspiration.
17 years after its initial premiere, Ovo is just as brilliant. Over time, acts have shifted and changed, but the heart of the story and the incredible Cirque du Soleil talent remain.
Broadway World said of this Royal Albert Hall staging, “High-flying scarabs loop through the air, ants juggle improbably massive fruits with their feet, and a contortionist twists her body into shapes mathematicians would struggle to describe. Above all, movement is king.”

- Ovo means “egg” in Portuguese and was the first Cirque du Soleil show with a Portuguese name.
