Cirque du Soleil’s newest show, Viva Elvis, recently opened at Aria Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. Fusing dance, acrobatics, and live music, Viva Elvis is a nostalgic yet modern tribute to Elvis Presley that highlights significant moments in the King’s life. "On a creative level, it was extremely stimulating to draw our inspiration from this musical icon," said Guy Laliberté, founder of Cirque du Soleil. "Viva Elvis showcases the raw energy and pure talent of Elvis and highlights the exhilaration and beauty of his music on a grand scale."
Adds Priscilla Presley: "Elvis has always been in the forefront of new, contemporary entertainment and technology. I believe Viva Elvis continues this and reaches out and expands his legacy in a new, creative, and exciting way."
