Michael Jackson -- The Cirque Comes to Town
Originally posted Apr 20th 2010 8:59 AM PDT by TMZ Staff
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.

2+0+2+0+1+0+8+5+9=27 -> 999
What is the connection? Please explain... im having a blank day today.
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?
Now it's HIS turn to make the audience beLIEve. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Michael Jackson, the man behind the curtain, because he's SO alive and he's definitely running this show.
And it doesn't finish there... Go to <!-- m -->http://promo-www.cirquedusoleil.com/mic ... index.html<!-- m --> and just WATCH <!-- s:shock: -->:shock:<!-- s:shock: --> They're making HIStory again and they're COMING TOGETHER
Bravo, Michael! I want to be just like you when I grow up <!-- s --><!-- s -->
If you remeber the Chris angel beLIEve thing and cirque du soleil is connected to Chris angel

<!-- s --><!-- s --> <!-- s --><!-- s --> <!-- s --><!-- s -->
mj AND cirque coming together in...2011.
GREAT --'
AND THIS
Jackson's mother, Katherine, said in a statement, "Our family is thrilled that Cirque du Soleil will pay tribute to my son in such an important way." <!-- m -->http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wir ... 163&page=2<!-- m -->
i thought that branca was stealing MJ! <!-- s --><!-- s --> LMAO
You don't have to worry, these are great news! We can be 99.9% sure that he will be back and that's enough for me <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) -->
Long live the KING!
i know he will come back since TII ... and this is not matter of 'his return'... <!-- s:roll: -->:roll:<!-- s:roll: -->
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
Well said and I absolutely agree!
I don't know why but I get a very good feeling watching this video. THE MAN IS A GENIUS! <!-- s:D -->:D<!-- s:D -->
