Cirque du Soleil returns to King County's Marymoor Park in Redmond this summer, with a Thursday, June 3 premiere of "KOOZA."

Shows will run through June 27. Ticket information is available at http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/en/shows/kooza/default.aspx

"KOOZA" is a return to the origins of Cirque du Soleil that combines two circus traditions: acrobatic performance and the art of clowning. The show explores all the physical demands of human performance and is described as "fun, funny, light and open."

The show starts with The Trickster bursting onto the scene like a jack-in-the-box right in front of The Innocent, which is just the first of many surprises. Other characters include the King, the Heimloss, the Pickpocket, the Obnoxious Tourist and his Bad Dog.
