Following their famous Las Vegas shows using music by The Beatles and Elvis Presley, Cirque du Soleil are to release a Michael Jackson spectacular.
Initially going on tour before taking residency in Sin City in 2012, the show profits will be split between Cirque and the Jackson estate.
This will go some way to recouping the rumoured debts left after Michael's death. The revenue from the This Is It movie and record-breaking album deal last year have also meant huge financial gains for the late singers' estate.
Jackson's mother Katherine said in a statement: "Our family is thrilled that Cirque du Soleil will pay tribute to my son in such an important way."
John Branca, co-executor of the estate added: "Having attended Cirque du Soleil performances with Michael, I know he was a huge fan. We are excited to be partners with Cirque du Soleil to give Michael's fans a truly unique way to hear, see and feel Michael's music."
