Michael Jackson's estate has thrilled fans by unveiling the first images of acrobatic troupe Cirque du Soleil's highly-anticipated tour marking his music legacy.
Jackson's estate executors signed a deal with Cirque producers to put on a stage spectacular featuring the Thriller hitmaker's songs, after his tragic death in June, 2009.
And on Wednesday (03Nov10), the new business partners unveiled the first images from the Michael Jackson THE IMMORTAL World Tour, which is being billed as a combination of thrilling choreography and visual effects set to Jackson's music.
The tour, which has won Jackson's mother Katherine Jackson's personal approval, is set to kick off in Montreal, Canada in October, 2011 and hit cities including New York, Miami, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Las Vegas - where it will reportedly be turned into a longterm residency featuring 3D technology.
Jackson's estate and Cirque du Soleil producers will each own 50 per cent of the project and will equally share production costs. The estate will also receive royalties from the use of Jackson's music and other property.
