Cirque du Soleil takes to the streets

It's been 20 years since Cirque du Soleil brought one of its shows to Barcelona for the first time; in 1998 'Alegría' was the star of the day, and now with 'Totem' on in a big tent in L'Hospitalet, part of the show's cast are tooling around Barcelona in a tourist bus, making two stops along the route. At 11.30am, the bus heads out of the Big Top (Travesía Industrial, 50) where the show is on until late May, and makes its first stop in Plaça del Catedral, where the artists will get off the bus and improvise a performance with music. The second stop is at the Sagrada Família, where you can snap a photo of the artists at one of the most emblematic monuments in town, if not the entire country.
