[Congrats to randomly selected winner Mary A. and thanks to all who participated!]

BY MELISSA RUGGIERI

A few days ago we told you about “Varekai,” the “feel-good” Cirque du Soleil show coming to The Arena at Gwinnett Center next week.

Want to go?

Good, because I have a pair of tickets to give away for the show at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 29 at The Arena at Gwinnett Center.

Here's the deal: Email me at mruggieri@ajc.com and tell me when and where "Varekai" last played Atlanta (hint – you can find the answer in my story here ).

This is a quick turnaround contest, so make sure you email me by 6 p.m. today (Friday). Please put “Cirque tickets” in the subject line – anything else and I won’t see it and you’ll have zero chance of winning. Also, only one entry per person, please.

I’ll randomly select a winner, contact you directly and post the name at the top of this blog.

If you're interested in buying tickets to see "Varekai," they are $40-$145 and available at www.gwinnettcenter.com.

Good luck!
