(PRWEB) March 16, 2016 -- The New Cirque Du Soleil Show "OVO" is Coming To Florida For the First Time

Tickets Available to the General Public Friday, March 25th

March 16, 2016 – Cirque du Soleil returns to Florida this September and October 2016 to present its newest touring arena show, “OVO,” never before played in Florida!

The production, presented by Visa Signature®, will be playing in the following three cities, as part of a global tour in arenas around North America:

• Orlando: Sept. 21 - 25 at the Amway Center
• Estero: Sept. 28 – Oct. 2 at the Germain Arena
• Jacksonville: Oct.5 - 9 at the Veterans Memorial Arena

Thrilling more than 4.5 million people worldwide since the show premiered in 2009, OVO will embark on a new journey, performing the same captivating production, now in arenas, giving more people the opportunity to enjoy a Cirque du Soleil show in their home town.

About The Show
OVO, meaning “egg” in Portuguese, is a headlong rush into a colorful ecosystem teeming with life, where insects work, eat, crawl, flutter, play, fight and look for love in a non-stop riot of energy and movement.

When a mysterious egg appears in their midst, the insects are awestruck and intensely curious about this iconic object that represents the enigma and cycles of their lives. It is love at first sight when a gawky, quirky insect arrives in this bustling community and a fabulous ladybug catches his eye – and the feeling is mutual.

The cast of OVO is comprised of 50 performing artists from 12 countries specializing in many acrobatic acts. One highlight of OVO is the stunning Flying Act where group of scarabs soar high above – from each corner of the stage – and land together on a platform in the middle.

The Creative Team behind the world of OVO is:

• Artistic Guides Guy Laliberté and Gilles Ste-Croix
• Writer, Director and Choreographer Deborah Colker (first female director at Cirque du Soleil)
• Director of Creation Chantal Tremblay
• Set and Prop Designer Gringo Cardia
• Costume Designer Liz Vandal
• Composer and Musical Director Berna Ceppas
• Lighting Designer Éric Champoux
• Sound Designer Jonathan Deans
• Rigging and Acrobatic Equipment Designer Fred Gérard (for the first time at Cirque du Soleil)
• Acrobatic Performance Designer Philippe Aubertin
• Makeup Designer Julie Bégin
