On Friday, October 28, the Palace Theatre in Stamford will feature an amazing multi-media experience that pays tribute to the life and legacy of Michael Jackson.
Laser Spectacular’s Spirit of Michael Jackson will feature live performances including a dance troupe that performs Jackson’s choreography to perfection, the show also includes state-of-the-art lasers, large screen video projections and concert sound.
Spanning his 40-year career, this stunning show takes the audience on a visual journey that captures the essence of Michael Jackson’s worldwide concert appearances, his most recent achievements, and his early years as a child prodigy.
Many of Michael Jackson’s hits lend themselves to an artistic laser and light performance, much in the style of the Pink Floyd Laser Spectacular.
Through the use of animated laser graphics, laser beams and aerials, the lights and lasers re-create images of Michael with 3-D holographic effects. The lighting show is a concert-style configuration. Along with the laser beams and graphics, it’s certain to wow the audience with the same power and excitement of a live concert.
