Michael Jackson lives on through Cirque du Soleil

Michael Jackson's music reaches new heights.
Cirque du Soleil and the late King of pop's estate have teamed together to form the new show - Michael Jackson THE IMMORTAL World Tour.
Jackson's family including his three children and his mother, all attended the premiere in Canada.
Michael's brother Jackie says the union is a match made in heaven.

Cirque began working on the show over two years ago, collaborating with members of Jackson's personal crew - making this the largest creative team ever assembled for a Cirque production.
