The famous Cirque du Soleil has begun a world tour presenting a performance-tribute to Michael Jackson. In September and October, the event will be staged in Australia’s biggest cities after it completes a tour of China, South Korea and Japan.
Among the artists participating in the performance in question is the Cypriot Liko Kosmidis, who pointed out that he is experiencing “the dream of his life.”

He has lived in Melbourne and chased his dream in Los Angeles, where he was finally chosen, among thousands of dancers, to participate in the performance Michael Jackson the Immortal World Tour.
