Cirque du Soleil’s latest show, OVO, takes you into the colorful little world of insects. The plot: When a mysterious egg appears in their midst, the insects are awestruck and curious. Amidst work, play, and the everyday activities of an insect’s life, a gawky, quirky new insect arrives and a fabulous ladybug catches his eye. With stunning visuals and music, OVO reveals the beauty and action of the hidden world at our feet.

WHAT’S THE DEAL: UPDATE — Cirque du Soliel: Ovo coming to Washington D.C. in September (click here to sign up with Goldstar and watch for the discount.)
