Just when Dr. Conrad Murray was safely behind bars and you thought the Michael Jackson postmortem couldn’t get any squickier, Cirque du Soleil busted out … fetish gear! This is a brief snippet from The Immortal World Tour, which plays an extended engagement at Mandalay Bay next month and will be adapted for the MBay showroom once The Lion King has been put out to pasture. (Opening night of Lion King included such sights as Cirque’s Guy Laliberté lurking outside the auditorium like a tiny homunculus, ready to spread evil pixie dust on the Julie Taymor spectacular.)
Anyway, see what you think. My wife is a Cirque fan and she was underwhelmed — but you may feel quite differently.
