The choreographers for Britney‘s The Circus: Starring Britney Spears tour have been announced, and the line-up is as follows:

Director: Jamie King
Musical Director: Simon Ellis
Contributing Choreographers: JaQuel Knight & Tony Testa
Aerial Choreographer: Dreya Weber

…Aerial choreographer! High flying madness is coming our way!

This is a superstar line-up, plain and simple. Jamie King is the mastermind behind Madonna‘s Confessions Tour, Simon Ellis was the musical director for the Return of the Spice Girls tour,
Tony Testa did the choreography for Janet Jackson‘s 20 Y.O. era, and JaQuel Knight? Let’s just say: Britney didn’t forget to put a ring on it.

And for a little sampling, here’s Knight’s mini-tease of choreography for “Perfect Lover” that he completed back in the summer.

We’re in for a show.

There have been rumors abound regarding who’s in and who’s out in terms of the choreography for Britney‘s latest tour, The Circus: Starring Britney Spears. Frankly, I’m not positive where Wade Robson and Andre Fuentes stand in terms of their involvement in the project.

What I do know for certain is that Jamie King has been announced as the official musical director. He’s been in charge of B’s …Oops! I Did It Again Tour, the Spice Girls Reunion Tour, and most importantly, Madonna‘s CONFESSIONS TOUR. Consider this an a-m-a-z-i-n-g victory!

So instead of bickering about Robson and Fuentes’ involvement, let’s watch as new choreographers audition! Here’s Shane Sparks and his crew.

As you can see in this video, it’s Jamie King behind the table.

Quite nice.
