WILDER THAN A FLEA CIRCUS

CIRQUE DU SOLEIL'S OVO ★★★ ROYAL ALBERT HALL, UNTIL MARCH 1, royalalberthall.com

- With STEFAN KYRIAZIS

Freakishly flexible folk in spangly Spandex? Yup, it's time for London's annual eye-popping Cirque extravaganza. Biodiversity's the theme of this 2009 show, and as the stage fills with dazzling Day-Glo insects and giant swaying flowers, it feels like we're in a bonkers fever dream of Honey, I Shrunk The Circus.
