Cirque du Soleil's TOTEM
Grand Chapiteau at Del Mar Fairgrounds (2260 Jimmy Durante Blvd Del Mar, CA 92014)
In TOTEM, Cirque du Soleil traces the journey of the human race from amphibian beginnings all the way into the future, imagining the realization of our ultimate desire to fly. Set on a stage inspired by the giant turtle that represents Earth's origins in many ancient civilizations, and drawing inspiration from various creation myths, TOTEM's characters evolve through mind-blowing acrobatics and stunning visual displays, exploring the ties between all of Earth's species and the dreams and infinite potential of humanity.

Totem was amazing, the story line was great and everything was so creatively incorporated. I had very high expectations for this show because I learned that it was created and directed by the same person that did KA in Las Vegas; and Totem met and exceeded my expectations.Written on May 14 2012
The stage was beautifully designed and surprisingly creative in how it was used throughout the show. Even several of the acts, tied into the storyline which was really good. I was pleasantly surprised by the way the stage was used for several of the acts; since it is a touring show I didn't think that the stage would be so elaborate and used almost as if it was a character as well.
My bf and I had a great time, it was definitely worth every penny. There really isn't a bad seat in the house, we were slightly off center in the back section but I'd say getting seats in the front section or centered in the back are probably the best seats. You won't want to miss this if you're a Cirque Fan.

JAW-DROPPING-ly AMAZING!Written on May 11 2012
Every act was spectacular!
It was beautifully choreographed, designed, and executed. The music, band and singers were incredible.
The use of projections and stage craft was so innovative! It's crazy to imagine the work that goes into creating this show inside a temporary tent.
Every seat was a good seat basically. Of course, the middle section was the best.
I want to go back!
We got the CD (normally $18) and the program (normally $15) for $25 for both.
Parking is $10 CASH ONLY!
Found that out the hard way and had to turn around to go to an ATM but then ended up finding free street parking. =D
