Cirque DU Soleil visits Spokane

The characters in a Cirque du Soleil show aren’t like anything most of us have ever seen. They move in ways unlike any of the creatures on this planet. It’s almost other - worldly magic as they explore a stage. With the “OVO” show in Spokane this weekend, it only seems only fitting that these are the exact types who would want to explore not only our world, but specifically our community. So, join actors Inna Bekmamadova (as Flea), Jan Dutler (as The Foreigner - Fly) and James Johnson (as Cricket) on their sightseeing tour of our own landmarks/SR.
