Thriller Live show brings Michael Jackson back to life
We go backstage with Cleo Higgins
Michael Jackson might have left us, but his spirit and music live on. Showing at Parisian Macao’s new Parisian Theatre until November 13, Thriller Live is a theatrical 90-minute concert dedicated to the legendary entertainer, taking audiences on a journey through his astonishing musical legacy.
Among the artists performing Jackson’s timeless songs and signature dance moves, Cleo Higgins is the only female singer in the show. As the lead singer of 1990s R&B pop sensation Cleopatra and a regular on top TV shows, she stuns the crowds with her interpretation of songs such as The Way You Make Me Feel.
Macau marks Higgins’s last stop in Thriller Live before she makes her solo debut. Next time you see this talented performer, she is likely to be singing her own songs.
“It is my first time to be in Macau,” she says. “I did not know this place existed. It feels like a fantasy island. This is also my first time doing Thriller Live in Asia. I feel so excited as I love travelling. I have been singing since I was nine years old. My sister and I travelled pretty much everywhere around the world, but we never got to China so I feel really honoured.
