The newest Cirque du Soleil production



The name of the forthcoming Cirque du Soleil show which will debut at the end of the month at the Old Port in Montreal is Totem. I'll be buying a ticket for one of May's performances, and I'm pretty excited about this!

Here's the synopsis:

TOTEM traces the fascinating journey of the human species from its original amphibian state to its ultimate desire to fly. The characters evolve on a stage evoking a giant turtle, the symbol of origin for many ancient civilizations.

Inspired by many founding myths, TOTEM illustrates, through a visual and acrobatic language, the evolutionary progress of species.

Somewhere between science and legend TOTEM explores the ties that bind Man to other species, his dreams and his infinite potential

As an aside, last year's production, Ovo, is now touring in the USA. The show is currently in NYC, but it will also visit Boston, Washington, D. C., Hartford, and Atlanta. Don't miss it if it's stops in a city near you.
