The patients and families of Nicklaus Children’s Hospital were in for a laugh when performers of Cirque Du Soleil stopped by for a fun visit. Cast members from “OVO by Cirque Du Soleil” brought smiles and laughter to the lobby of the Advanced Pediatric Care Pavilion. The performers, who were dressed as insects in crazy and vibrant costumes, interacted with the children by making masks, singing songs, and drawing bugs, along with other fun activities. Thank you to Cirque du Soleil and its actors for this incredible visit!
