Moonwalk onto stage
MOONWALKING on to the Cairns stage, the critically acclaimed tribute show The Michael Jackson HIStory Show is coming, glove in hand, to take over the town for one night of killer thriller this March.
A performance for the ages with the king of pop greatest hits will take the stage at the Cairns Performing Arts Centre on Tuesday, March 26, in a show with amazing costumes, sets and dance numbers led by professional impersonator Garth Field.
Field said the HIStory Show would immediately capture the audience’s heart.
“The Michael Jackson HIStory Show has a lot of dancing, a lot of excitement, state of the art lighting, a fantastic team that has put together a production that all Michael Jackson fans can relate to with Michael Jackson’s authenticity and style,” he said.
“There’s so much excitement around the show from fans who are now 60-70 years old to three or four-year-old children they want to watch it and get introduced to one of the best, the king of pop.
“It’s an honour to be part of this storytelling to be able to show the world who Michael Jackson was. It’s really humbling and very challenging but it feels great.”
Bringing back to life MJ’s greatest hits from the 80s and the 90s and going back to his Jackson 5 era, all eras will be explored and honoured with amazing stages, and breathtaking dance.
“This is my first time in Australia and I can’t wait to be on stage to entertain,” Mr Field said. “We’ll do all of the iconic songs, with the full Michael Jackson costumes, we do Bad, we do Beat it, we do Thriller, a lot of songs from when he got started in the Jackson 5, the hits which dominated the 80s and 90s but we also surprise the audience with the magic of Michael Jackson. I try to add a lot of the way he spoke, his accent, his way of speaking and his love of music.”
