World famous Cirque du Soleil takes you into the colorful, energetic world of insects in their latest show, OVO. 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.

Best of Bay Area’s Teen Adventure
Fall 2008
Byron, Best of Bay Area
As a teenager, I enjoyed go cart racing at a few tracks. As an Adult, I graduated onto Malibu Grand Prix where I competed against family members. Then I experienced GoKart Racer in Burlingame. While there were similarities to Malibu Grand Prix, nothing compares to actually racing against others on the track.
