Michael Jackson -- The Cirque Comes to Town

TMZ has learned the executors for Michael Jackson's estate have signed a huge deal with Cirque du Soleil.

Co-executor John Branca tells TMZ, the first show will open in the 4th quarter of 2010.

The show will be heavily focused on dancing -- honoring the legendary moves of MJ. It will also feature Jackson's songs and have the trademark Cirque du Soleil acrobatics.

In 2012, a second show will open in Las Vegas which will be far more theatrical with emphasis on technology and 3D. "It will be a theme-park-like show," says Branca.

Sources say the shows will be worth a fortune to the estate.

  • I have been waiting for this... It took them almost half a year to make the deal.
  • I was about to post this! I knew they would do this..just like they did with the Beatles. I'm sure it will be beautiful. I can imagine it already. I will definitely be going to this. I'm an emotional fool so I will probably be all tears throughout the thing lol. But it saddens me that they talk about 2012. They're planning so far ahead. If he's not back by then I don't know what I'll do <!-- s:( -->:(<!-- s:( --> . Even if he's not back by this summer I don't think I'll be able to hold on..

    I feel like this is important, but I don't know how it fits in with the hoax.

    The carpet is being knotted exactly in the colours MJ wanted.
    The last ropes will be falling off his chains in June.

    Okay so Criss Angel is related to Cirque du Soleil, cirque du Soleil and MJ signed a deal to make a show that will pass by Staples center, Staples center where was MJ's memorial and that same day a circus was there with elephants with Greatest Show on earth
    the time post like Mo said 999

    LOL
  • Am I mistaken or isn't this something Michael was pursuing before his absence? I thought he was in discussion for something like this...but I could be wrong as there has been SO much going on!

    come on! Too many clues pointing to circus and magic what not! What can I say the man is a genius. Everything is according to plan here as we get closer to June more stuff comes out. Remember we must hold on there will be depressing news pointing to he's dead and this he's a druggie, but to us that the man they describe isn't MIke. I read and the more I convince myself the "dead" dude isn't Mike. It's like with some meds it's gotta get bad before it gets better this is all about keepind da faith, the news we receive will make us feel down, but at the end BAM! MIke <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) --> <!-- s:D -->:D<!-- s:D -->

    What I implied: This is the first time it is announced publically, therefore we can stop speculating on clues and start relying on facts. If he's coming back it means you, Mo, Souza, TS and all those independent thinkers did a good job bringing his message to us. It's almost done.

    L.O.V.E

    Sorry for the double post Victor! I didn't look past the pinned threads.
  • So.. what has this got to do with the Beatles?
  • The carpet is being knotted exactly in the colours MJ wanted.
    The last ropes will be falling off his chains in June.

    Well said and I absolutely agree!

    So.. what has this got to do with the Beatles?

    The Cirque du soleil had made tribute show for the beatles and for elvis.

    I know there was a circus at same time as memorial at Staples... is this the same circus?

    And what is the connection to the Beatles?

    Cirque du Soleil made a show called LOVE with the Beatles music.Cirque du soleil is not the same type that was at Staples stadium.

    Here,s a link about the show LOVE: <!-- m -->http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/en/shows/ ... fault.aspx<!-- m -->
