Insects inspiration for new circus show

After leaving its distinctive yellow and blue grand chapiteau at home last year, Cirque du Soleil will return to Perth under the big top with its latest show Ovo.
Opening on April 14 next year at Langley Park, the show will stop in Perth on the final leg of its Australian tour, which starts in Brisbane in July this year.
Ovo means egg in Portuguese and the show is said to take its inspiration from the frenetic colour and energy of the insect world.
The Australian tour will be the first time Ovo has toured outside North America since its premiere in Montreal in 2009.
The Canadian circus company presented a tent-free Saltimbanco at Challenge Stadium last April.
Advance tickets to Ovo are available from Wednesday to Cirque Club members, who can join free at www.cirque club.com.
General public tickets go on sale on February 20.
