Late Michael Jackson gets own Cirque Du Soleil show
The late pop icon Michael Jackson will get his own Cirque Du Soleil show via ‘The Immortal World Tour’ which will open in October 2011 in Canada.
The said show will be combining the choreography and music of the later pop icon with the popular circus troupe’s signature acrobatics.
Stage director and choreographer, Jamie King will direct the production that will be touring 27 cities in Canada and the U.S. He said that it will be all about Michael Jackson.
King said that the show is everything about Michael including his love life, love of music, love of theatricality and magic, love of showmanship and love of animals.
John Branca, Jackson estate’s co-executor, said that the idea is to bring the legendary pop singer to his fans and make the concerts’ feeling in a setting of an arena.
Branca added that this show hasn’t been done before since Cirque hasn’t done with any historic icons such as the Beatles or even Elvis Presley.
