Watch as 63 talented performers tumble, stretch, bounce, hop, lock, twist and slide through the King of Pop’s most memorable musical hits in Cirque du Soleil’s Michael Jackson ONE.
The state-of-the-art surround sound system rocks the theater while performers take the audience on an unforgettable audio-visual journey through the life and music of the superstar. Choreography serves as narration and helps move along the show that follows four young adventurers who journey through the stand-out moments in Jackson’s life; routines explore all types of dance from modern, urban and hip hop to jazz, swing and tap. You’ll see Jackson’s famous moonwalk, the gravity-defying “Smooth Criminal” lean and the dark and dazzling “Thriller” theatrics all reimagined, as well as physical feats that Cirque is so well-known for, including trampoline, acrobatic and aerial stunts.
Make-up, costuming, lighting, set designs and special effects all lend to the magical, musical world that transforms the theater and envelops the audience for 90 minutes of pure entertainment that would make the one-gloved wonder proud.
