Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour is the first of two different official theatrical productions by Cirque du Soleil which uses the music and vision of Michael Jackson along with Cirque du Soleil's signature acrobatic performance style to create a realistic concert experience. The show was written and directed by Jamie King[1] and produced in partnership with the Estate of Michael Jackson.[2] The arena show—which is very similar to a rock concert—began its tour October 2, 2011, in Montreal. After touring North America for about two years, it will continue on to Europe and the rest of the world.

The Michael Jackson Company LLC has partnered with Cirque du Soleil in order to create this concert experience. As part of the $250 million contract with Sony allowing music publishing until 2017, an album titled Immortal was produced.[3] The estate initially opened 50 venues and asked the fans to make a request if they wanted for the show to come to their respective cities. The high ticket demand prompted the estate to add several venues and several show dates which resulted in a total of 273 shows in North America and Europe. The first show kicked off in October 2011. As of December 2011, just two months after it was launched, the show had sold out over $100 million tickets and became the top touring act in America according to Forbes.[4]

Immortal has so far generated $300 million and has been performed to over 2 million audience members worldwide.[5] It topped the charts in 2012 and became the highest grossing tour in the U.S. in 2012 generating USD 163 million.[6][7]

Public Reception

The show attracted several celebrities such as Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie,[8] Jay-Z, Beyoncé Knowles, Rihanna, Eva Longoria, Courteney Cox, Josh Groban,[9] Jennifer Lopez,[10] Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell,[11] the cast of Glee,[12] Andrew Garfield, and Emma Stone.

History

On November 2, 2010, Cirque du Soleil and his estate announced the development of The Immortal World Tour through Michael Jackson's official website. In a press release, the company stated, "A riveting fusion of visuals, dance, music and fantasy that immerses audiences in Michael’s creative world and literally turns his signature moves upside down, Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour unfolds Michael Jackson’s artistry before the eyes of the audience. Aimed at lifelong fans as well as those experiencing Michael’s creative genius for the first time, the show captures the essence, soul and inspiration of the King of Pop, celebrating a legacy that continues to transcend generations".[13]

Director Jamie King, who had previously spearheaded tours by Britney Spears, Madonna, Celine Dion and Rihanna, stated that he wanted to include Jackson's "giving tree" as the focus of the tour.[14]

As noted during an interview with Daniel Lamare, within 24 hours of opening ticket sales for the show, Cirque du Soleil sold 200,000 tickets.[15]

Controversy

During the opening performance at the Wukesong MasterCard Arena in Beijing, China on August 9, 2013, the montage regarding the track "They Don’t Care About Us" reportedly drew a collectively audible gasp from the audience when a photo referencing to the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 of the famous "Tank Man" who tried to stop military tanks during the protest, had been digitally manipulated to include Jackson; which the image is banned in mainland China. Cirque du Soleil regarded that as a slip-up and removed the photo during the remainder of the Chinese leg of the tour that was reportedly vetted by Chinese officials.[16][17][18]

Acts

The acts of The Immortal World Tour are staged to the music of Michael Jackson.[19] Cirque gathered a creative team of 10 high-profile choreographers, some of whom worked with Michael, to design the acts.[20]

Costumes

Zaldy Goco, The Immortal's costume designer, said the following in regards to his inspiration for the collection of 252 costumes: ”My approach has been to draw upon and respect Michael’s iconic style while creating something new and fresh. I placed subtle references throughout the costumes in the show."[21] The color palette chosen for the show is rich, lively, and ornate such as through the usage of gold and crystals. The design team explored such technologies as 3D printing and LED lighting for the many different colored pieces.

Highlights of the costumes range from 3D printing techniques to pyrotechnics being built into the designs.[21]

  • Gangster types have 3D-printed surreal guns that shoot pyrotechniques when the triggers are pulled. The shoulder pads are also 3D-printed.
  • The straps duo costumes are covered in Swarovski crystals, and were inspired by Michael's corseted wrist in the Black and White video.
  • The bat costumes are created using ultra lightweight paper used for shipping parcels.
  • The soldiers' costumes are primarily made of mytex on a polyester frame with padding.
  • All the costumes in the Human Nature act are equipped with over 275 LED lights.
  • The costumes for the welders were inspired by the red, zipper-clad jacket in Beat It.

Music

Main article: Immortal (Michael Jackson album)

On October 3, 2011, Sony Music Entertainment announced that over 40 Jackson's original recordings were redesigned and reimagined by the Justin Timberlake and Rihanna producer Kevin Antunes throughout a year-period work in the studio with original multi-track master recordings.[22] Hence it's expected that Immortal will continue a similar mixing production to the soundtracks to previous Cirque du Soleil's shows: 2006's Love, with the remixed music of The Beatles (to the show of the same name), and 2010's Elvis Presley-themed remix soundtrack Viva Elvis (to the show of the same name).

Being released by Epic Records in conjunction with estate of Michael Jackson,[23] Immortal features an alternative version of The Jackson 5 song "ABC",[24] as well as a series of mashups and remixes such as a choir-assisted rendition of "They Don't Care About Us".[25] Despite over 60 songs had been used for the stage show, the album release will be available as a 20-track album or a deluxe 27-track album only.
