Toronto, May 22, 2012 – Due to an overwhelming reception by the Greater Toronto Area community and strong ticket sales, Cavalia announced today that seven additional performances will be added to the limited engagement of their new production, Odysseo, at Toronto’s Port Lands (Lakeshore East & Cherry Street), extending its Toronto run by one week. The 5-D mega-production will now run until June 10.
After an extended standing ovation on opening night, The Toronto Star’s Richard Ouzounian said of the show, "Bravo to Artistic Director Normand Latourelle and his inspired creative team, who have seemingly done the impossible by coming up with a show even better than Cavalia…Lightning can strike twice. It just did and it’s called Odysseo."
Melissa Leong of The National Post raved, “Few escapes from reality are as beautiful as Odysseo."
“We are delighted to finally be back in Toronto,” said Normand Latourelle, Founder and Artistic Director of Cavalia. “Our first show was received wonderfully back in 2003, but the reception of our new production, Odysseo, has been overwhelmingly wonderful. In an effort to please the public, we are extending our stay in Toronto to meet the exceptional consumer demand.”
