Ginny Cannon, CCA marketing, said the concert is coming to Enterprise directly from Las Vegas and brings the energy, excitement and spectacle of the “King of Pop.”
“Michael Jackson was the biggest pop star of his era,” Cannon said “He was one of the defining stars of the 20th century.
Jackson is portrayed by Jalles Franca who, Cannon said, looks like, sounds like and dances like Jackson as much as anyone can dance like Michael Jackson.
Franca will treat the audience to some of Jackson’s most famous songs including “Beat It,” “Thriller,” “The Man in the Mirror,” “Billie Jean” and “Bad.”
Advance tickets are $25 for adults and $20 for students. Day of the event tickers are $30 for adults and $23 for students.
