Cirque du Soleil OVO is taking over the Cross Center next month. Why should you go? We talked to one the many people who transform this show into a living dream world.

Marjon Van Grunsven is the artistic director for Cirque du Soleil. Marjon has an incredible resume! A native of Holland, she moved to New York to learn dance from the best in the world. She's traveled the world as the artistic director of her dance company before Cirque du Soleil brought her on board. The gig was only supposed to be a three month fill-in position. Now eight years later she's still with Cirque and helping to create truly one of the most incredible shows you will ever see.

When you hear the name Cirque du Soleil, what comes to mind? Incredible visual effects. Music. Dance. Aerobatics. Expect all of that, plus more! Trust us, we talked to the artistic director. It doesn't get more 'straight from the horse's mouth' than that!

Cirque du Soleil OVO will be at the Cross Insurance Center June 2-5.
