Cirque officials are working with authorities investigating the accident and have offered their full cooperation, he added. The Clark County Coroner's Office will rule on the cause of death. The MGM Grand also issued a statement concerning the accident. "Our company is deeply saddened by the loss of one of the talented KA artists Saturday night," it reads. "The thoughts and prayers of our employees are with the performer's family, the cast of KA, and the entire Cirque family during this difficult time." The accident occurred while Cirque's top executives, including president Daniel Lamarre, were in Las Vegas to celebrate the premiere of "Michael Jackson One" at Mandalay Bay. On Wednesday night, a performer in a preview performance of that show suffered a mild concussion after missing the protective pad below an act and landing on the stage. That artist is expected to return to the show. ___ Information from: Las Vegas Sun, http://www.lasvegassun.com/
