GET ready to moonwalk the night away with the world’s No.1 Michael Jackson performer.
King Of Pop – The Legend Continues is at Weymouth Pavilion on Sunday June 28.
The production is led by tribute artist 'Navi', said to be the leading Michael Jackson tribute artist.
Navi has had a career spanning more than two decades in 57 different countries.
His career highlight came in 2003 when he was invited to perform at Michael Jackson's 45th birthday party in Los Angeles.
Michael not only applauded Navi but went on to give him a standing ovation and thumbs up.
This was an incredible moment for Navi which was captured on film.
He said: "To meet Michael was one thing, but to perform in front of the greatest entertainer of all time and to perform his songs was no easy feat and extremely nerve-wracking.".
The following day Navi was invited to visit Michael’s home, Neverland.
He spent the day inside Neverland, visited Michael’s cinema, zoo, went on a few of his theme park rides and had a barbeque on the grounds.
The relationship continued and over a period of many years Navi was frequently hand-picked by Michael to work for him in several different ways.
This included coming out of hotels as a decoy to distract waiting fans and press whilst Michael quietly slipped out the back exit. Navi was also hired for promotions of his forthcoming tours and album launches.
Since Michael's death, Navi has continued to work alongside the Michael Jackson Estate and in January 2010 he performed to a sell-out London O2 Indigo audience.
The same venue where the "This Is It" concerts sadly never took place.
Navi has been touring internationally ever since in his world renowned production King Of Pop – The Legend Continues.
Navi said: “The current tour is the reason I began performing my tribute - to represent Michael in the best possible way in cities all over the world.
"We just hope that the fans enjoy our show and that we continue to spread Michael’s legacy."
The show also features a live band and dancers who assist Navi in brilliantly recreating all the magical classics from the early Jackson 5 songs to the mega-hits such as Thriller and Smooth Criminal.
