The aerobatic spectacle, OVO, is on at the First Direct Arena until Sunday.

The theme of the show is a colourful ecosystem teeming with life, where insects work, eat, crawl, flutter, play, fight and look for love in a non-stop riot of energy and movement.

It features 50 artists from 17 countries including British performer Alanna Baker, who plays the role of the Black Spider in the show.
