OVO Cirque Du Soleil in Columbus!

I was given tickets to the show. No other compensation was received. My opinion is my own.

I posted before about how Cirque Du Soleil was coming to Columbus and even did a giveaway! Now they are here! My husband, my boys and I got the chance to see the show opening night and now I’m here to share.

I personally have never seen a Cirque Du Soleil show and I was excited to see the show. Check out the synopsis of the show below:

OVO is teeming with life. Insects work, play, fight and look for love in a non-stop riot of energy in motion. Their home is filled with biodiversity, beauty, action and moments of quiet emotion. The awestruck insects are intensely curious when a mysterious egg appears, representing the enigma and cycles of their lives.

 My Review:

I’ve always been interested in any person who could make their bodies move like the people in Cirque Du Soleil. It was pretty awesome. At times, I couldn’t take my eyes away and just stared. The ants were one of my favorites. Check out the video below to see some of what they can do. All these performers happened to be from China.

We brought our 10-year-old and 6-year-old sons. Yes, they show is appropriate for them as well. There were a couple parts that I know they probably didn’t understand but I thought were hilarious. Either way, it kept their attention. They also had a little bit of audience participation but I don’t want to give any of that away.

I was most surprised at my husband. He enjoyed it just as much as the kids. His favorite part were the butterflies. “Merging hand-to-hand, ballet and aerial contortion in an impressive flying act, this pair of Butterflies performs a pas-de-deux on aerial straps that allows them to swoop and land, leap and fly in perfect unison.” He said he imagines it takes a lot of strength and working together to do that and he was in awe. I was as well.

Want to make sure you don’t miss the show? You still have time to purchase tickets! Head to the OVO Cirque Du Soleil website and get your tickets. There are still 5 shows available to buy tickets for (not including tonight’s show that started at 7:30pm) and the tickets start ar $53.
