Cirque du Soleil Michael Jackson show @ DWTC
Discussion
Don't bother unless you are an absolute die hard MJ fan (or your wife is).
It's not a CdS show - more a bunch of disjointed dance performances with the odd acro thrown in.
Given the back catalogue to choose from, there were some very weird choices made and the editing makes it very jumpy and incoherent.
Set design was OK but not what I'd expect from CdS and was mainly made up of video screens so you could watch lots of videos of MJ - could have done that at home.
Very disappointed and certainly not worth the money - I felt even more sorry for the numpties that paid for the 'Royal' tickets. The stage layout means those at the front in their comfy sofas won't see half the show.

The two words I've used to describe it to friends are interesting and different. It's quite surreal at times, and I think it reflects just how odd Michael Jackson was ;-)
I'm glad I didn't pay for the tickets as I would've been really pissed if I'd paid 500AED each.
Bit of toe tapping. The ladies seemed to enjoy it much more than the men.
