Michael Jackson ONE -- Las Vegas…read more
WOW... just WOW!
I knew going in that a Michael Jackson show was going to be entertaining, but I honestly wasn't prepared for what we experienced with Michael Jackson ONE in Las Vegas.
This isn't just a concert, and it isn't just a Cirque du Soleil show. It's a full-on sensory experience that combines Michael Jackson's music, incredible choreography, acrobatics, special effects, lighting, video, and some seriously talented performers.
And let me tell you... the energy in this theater is absolutely off the charts!
The show takes you through some of Michael's biggest hits, and hearing those songs performed while watching the choreography and production happening all around you is something completely different from simply listening to the music.
The performers were phenomenal. The dancing, acrobatics, costumes, and athleticism were incredible, and there were moments where I honestly found myself wondering, "How in the world did they just do that?"
And the production itself? Las Vegas at its best.
The lights, screens, sound, effects, and stage design all work together to create something that feels much bigger than a traditional theater show. There is always something happening, and the show moves at a pace that keeps you completely engaged.
My wife and I were in Vegas celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary, and this was definitely one of those experiences that we'll be talking about for a long time.
If you're a Michael Jackson fan, I think you'll absolutely love this show. But even if you're not the biggest MJ fan in the world, the production value and talent alone make this worth experiencing.
I've seen plenty of shows over the years, but Michael Jackson ONE is one of those shows where you walk out of the theater thinking, "Now THAT was a show."
So if you're heading to Las Vegas and trying to decide what to put on your entertainment list, put this one on it.
Just be prepared to leave the theater wanting to dance... even if your dance moves look nothing like Michael Jackson's
