Cirque du Soleil announced that four of its shows will return to the stage after more than a year on hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The circus troupe's “Mystere” fantasia and water-themed “O” performances will resume in Las Vegas in June and July respectively, the Montreal-based group said in a statement, AFP reports.

Its touring show “KOOZA” will resume in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic in November followed by “LUZIA,” which draws its inspiration from the sights and sounds of Mexico, reopening in London in January 2022.

“This is the moment we have all been waiting for,” said Cirque du Soleil CEO Daniel Lamarre.
