The music of the King of Pop Michael Jackson is reverberating throughout Deira City Centre this DSF with the ‘Amazing Christopher Show’. The show, being staged in Deira City Centre till Feb 13th, has been a consistent crowd-puller and audiences are naturally mesmerized at the complexity of the choreography, the familiarity of the beats and the magnificent costumes. Deira City Centre is part of Majid Al Futtaim Properties which is a key sponsor of this year’s DSF.
The show is performed by talented American dancer/puppeteer Christopher who showcases his unique talent of dancing with four Michael Jackson puppets tied with him. His choreography is based on the signature dance moves of the popular singer. Dressed to resemble Michael Jackson in every way, Christopher uses sequined gloves and sock, fedora hats and glittering jackets.
The show paves the way for crowds to remember Michael Jackson and listen to all-time hits like Thriller, Beat It, and Billie Jean, to name a few. Christopher notes that he does not want to be viewed as a Michael Jackson imitator and to make his act exceptional, he uses four puppets to signify his ability to do an act of the famous Jackson 5.
According to Christopher, the show was inspired by two things: Halloween parties and Michael Jackson. He began conceptualizing the show in 1984 when the pop singer was at the peak of his career. He got his first chance to do a show in 1986, and since then he has travelled around the world, performing in almost 2000 venues.
Shoppers can catch Christopher at Deira City Centre till Feb 13th from 6:30pm to 10pm.
