In 2015, LEGACY has been so busy I’ve
had no time to Blog and share with you all what’s been going on with the show. Where to begin… Where to
begin!!!
As some of you know, we rolled out a brand new show in the
spring of 2015, which has been a complete hit amongst MJ and LEGACY fans. We
added new dance songs to the show such as “This Place Hotel”, full version of
“Working Day and Night” and other sexy rock songs such as “Dirty Diana” and
“Give In To Me”. In addition, we added new costuming by Sue Saari Designs and
awesome lighting by designer Ian Knodel.
This year alone, LEGACY was featured on radio, and scored a
full page, full color article in the Minneapolis Star Tribune and was also
placed on a commercial billboard recently as a result of advertising the early
October Thriller performances in Burnsville, MN.
In May, we broke attendance records at SteppingStone Theatre
with over 1,900 tickets sold in just two weekends. That is incredible for the size of
our show. But most importantly, LEGACY
had the opportunity to play key stages such as the Saloon’s main stage during
the Pride celebration in downtown Minneapolis, Treasure Island Resort &
Casino, Gay 90’s and The Muse.
I cannot express how thankful and lucky I am to have such a great artistic family who is dedicated, committed and passionate about what they do. This success would not be possible without their input, their ideas and their talent.
This year has placed us right back on the top of the game
and I plan to continue outputting high quality work that is tasteful and pays
homage to Michael in a very positive light.
There are few MJ tribute shows in the country this size and I am very
proud of the product LEGACY has become.
There is some re-structuring that is going on internally
with roles and responsibilities within the production team and for those of you
who follow us closely, you may be surprised (as was I) but change doesn’t necessarily
have to mean ‘bad’. It’s just different. I’ll be making those announcements
soon via blog as well so for those of you who follow us “Blog-Closely” can be
in the know.
Thank you to all the MJ fans, facebook followers all over
the world and to all the people that come see our shows! We do this for YOU.
