For anyone who’s ever been to a Cirque du Soleil show, it’s tough to encapsulate the experience in words. The performance is an explosion of color and movement, often times overcoming the human eye. So in lieu of sending a reviewer to pen a conventional review of CDS’ OVO show at the Plateau at National Harbor, we thought we’d enlist Kevin Carroll — who last week checked out the raising of the Grand Chapiteau where the performance is held — to deliver a photographic review of the show that, at times, defies verbalization. While he was there, Kevin even managed to fenangle a rare glimpse into the preparation for the show. The OVO show runs through October 24; tickets are available here.
