*I’m also expecting details of the cutting-edge 3D technology
being used so that “even though Michael Jackson won’t be
portrayed onstage, he will appear, and audiences will feel
and experience his presence.”
We’ll also hear just how much of the final dress rehearsal
footage of Michael hours before his death in L.A. and his
flight to London for the 02 Arena This Is It shows are
incorporated.
Memories and memorabilia from Michael Jackson's
Neverland Ranch will be part of a new, all-access and
interactive playground when Cirque du Soleil .
“These are the most ambitious projects within one
of the biggest contracts ever to be undertaken. It is
totally remarkable and unlike anything else ever
attempted in show business.
Careful creative control and magnificent management
will ensure Michael Jackson’s legacy will live forever.
