Michael Jackson THE IMMORTAL World Tour will be in Anaheim, from January 24 – 25, 2012 at Honda Center, and in Los Angeles, from January 27 – 29, 2012 at the Staples Center.

It was the perfect tribute to a true immortal but some acrobatics were weak, the music wasn’t just a greatest hits but there were some songs that weren’t released in the United States that were used in the production. Speaking of music, combines Michael Jackson music and choreography with Cirque du Soleil creativity to give fans worldwide a unique view into the spirit, passion and heart of the artistic genius who forever transformed global pop culture, adding a fresh enhanced soundtrack to his original songs made it better. Besides, in some parts of the performance there were lack of choreography but the good thing, all the special effects were wonderful and impressive. There also was a large video screen in back of the performers which often showed trees, waterfalls, and other scenes, some of them had connection to the rest of the performance mainly with Jackson’s life. This show was written and directed by Jamie King, the leading concert director in Pop music with a musical band in life, and featured more than 60 international dancers, musicians and acrobats. Their costumes were elaborate, flashy, lighted and changing colors in the dark and were fantastic, but the quality of the show wasn’t worth it at all, especially with the loud sound!
