Michael Jackson One Show Updated & Reinvented

Reimagined. Recreated. Reinvented.

Michael Jackson ONE by Cirque du Soleil has been undergoing highly anticipated show enhancements all summer long, upgrading a number of technologically advanced elements. Take a peek at what it takes to make these enhancements come to life.

1 NEW SONG

“Another Part of Me” has been integrated in the show and features all new choreography, developed in partnership with Jamie King and MJ ONE artists as contributing choreographers.

2 NEW ACTS

The Diabolo act, performed to “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’,” as well as all new choreography to “Another Part Of Me” have been added to the production.

6 NEW ARTISTS

The Diabolo artists introduce an exhilarating new discipline to the show, showcasing a unique apparatus that’s part yo-yo, part juggling tool—comprised of discs spinning on an axle, controlled by a string tethered to two sticks. Mastery of the diabolo demands precise skill and high-speed coordination, as performers effortlessly manipulate the spinning discs in a dazzling display of agility and control.

7 MEMBERS OF THE ORIGINAL CREATIVE TEAM

The Michael Jackson Estate and the show’s original designers were all involved with the planning and execution of the elements integrated into the show. The overall goal was to maintain the original vision and spirit of the production while adding the most state-of-the-art elements to the theatre.

9 LED PANELS

Immersive is an understatement. Suspended above the audience, nine LED panels will hang from the theater’s ceiling, enveloping every seat in a breathtaking visual spectacle. As Michael’s music fills the space, the projections will pulse and flow in perfect harmony, creating a fully engaging, multi-sensory journey that elevates the Vegas theatrical experience to an entirely new level.

18 NEW WINCHES

All the new panels require additional rigging points. Each panel is securely mounted with two winches, allowing it to adjust and pivot vertically in coordination with the projections, enhancing the overall visual presentation.

22 NEW PROJECTIONS

As the ultimate audio and visual spectacle, Michael Jackson ONE is taking the show to the next level with even more projections.

64 DRONES

Each drone, weighing just slightly more than a slice of bread, is individually programmed to create a stunning aerial display that complements the onstage performance. Offering a novel experience for Michael Jackson ONE fans, this production is the only one in the world where drones fly over the audience in a theater, adding a unique visual spectacle to the show.

70 HOURS OF MAKEUP COACHING

Fresh & vibrant new makeup looks were crafted specifically for each of the Diabolo artists, tailored to match their facial structure. All the artists apply their makeup look each night based on which act(s) they’re performing in that night.

98 NEW LIGHTING FIXTURES

Dynamic new lighting accompanies the cutting-edge projections displayed throughout the performance.

306 NEW COSTUME PIECES

World-renowned costume designer Zaldy Goco, the creative mastermind and original designer behind the most iconic outfits in Michael Jackson ONE, returned to craft new costumes and reimagine existing ones, bringing fresh life to his visionary designs.
