First off, if you have never seen a Cirque De Soleil show, right off the bat you’re obligated. It will be the most amazing thing you’ve ever seen. If you’re in Pittsburgh, you have until June 5th to see Totem. http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/en/shows/totem/default.aspx I saw Quidam twice, O in vegas, Alegria, and now Totem. Each time I’m […]
