TOURISM

Circus Barkers: The Cirque du Soleil, which is making its second appearance at South Coast Plaza over the past two years, is apparently enough of a draw that the Costa Mesa Marriott Suites is building a promotion around it.

For $79, guests receive a suite, breakfast, a discount card good for several Crystal Court stores and a coupon good for $10 off on a return visit. And tickets to the new-age circus? Guests have to buy those on their own. Tickets to the show, which runs through March 9, are priced from $19 to $35 each.
