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.
My Thoughts: If you crave adventure and adrenaline rushes, then this is the show for you. If you think you're going to see the ballet or a gymnastic performance, think again. This show will have to on the edge of your seat and holding your breath at times. The performers in this show defy death and put on such a visually spectacular show that it's unlike anything else. The creators of Cirque have such a wild imagination I can only imagine what they'll come up with next.
It was an amazing show, and you should definitely see it if you haven't already!
Love Cirque and saw a few shows on PBS. Can't wait to see their new stuff. Just amazing to watch over and over again.
