What has a dancing glove, a pole dancer, and plays Beat It? (No, the answer is not "this guy," although I see how you might think that.) The correct answer? The Michael Jackson: Immortal Cirque du Soleil show, which we saw last night. Holy sensory overload. But by far the highlights for me were the guy dressed as a giant sparkly white glove and the guys dressed as MJ's shoes. Yep, just his shoes.
The pole dancer was the most amazing thing I have ever seen - she must be VERY popular with the boys.
And the Jackson 5 songs, complete with afros, were toe-tappingly fun. (Yes, I'm aware this is sounding dangerously like a restaurant review.) They ended with Man in the Mirror, of course. People were swaying and dancing and I think the lady in front of us was crying. It was good, but it wasn't THAT good.
PS - of course Bubbles the chimp was represented. You can't have a Michael Jackson tribute without Bubbles the chimp.
