It seems that the costume designer for the Immortal World Tour is the same as for This Is It.<br /><br /> /><br /><br /> <br /> <br />August 1st, 2011<br />Immortal World Tour: MJ Holograms & MJ’s Vocals<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Michael Jackson’s multi-track vocals will be placed over a live band, which includes several key players who had toured with the pop star, such as keyboardist and music director Greg Phillinganes and drummer Jonathan “Sugarfoot” Moffett. Patrons who expect a show similar to most Cirque du Soleil shows will likely be surprised. “It’s different,” says Stephane Mongeau, executive producer for Cirque. “It’s a live concert with musicians, dancers and acrobats.”<br /><br />Michael will always be present during the show through video and new technology, especially holographic technology,” says King.<br /><br />“Most importantly, because it is a music-driven show, we’re working with Michael’s catalog. Michael is really the narrator, his voice will always be there.”<br /><br />With a development budget north of $50 million, the production touts 65 Jackson songs, including standard arrangements, remixes and mash-ups; Jackson’s choreography; and Cirque’s trademark acrobatics.<br /><br />“It will be unlike any other rock show that you may have seen before,” boasts James King, who began the project in March 2010. “It is a hybrid where we are taking the idea of a rock show and a Cirque show and taking it on the road.”<br /><br />http://mjstar.co.uk/?p=5108
