Celine Dion I'm Alive Las Vegas Shows
Celine Dion performing "I'm Alive"
In early 2002, Dion had announced a three-year, 600-show contract to appear five nights a week in an entertainment extravaganza, A New Day, at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. This move was seen as "one of the smartest business decisions in years by any major recording artist." given the poor performance of her releases since her return to the music industry.
She conceived the idea for the show after seeing O by Dragone early in her break from recording, and began on March 25, 2003, in a 4000-seat arena designed for her show. The show is put together by Franco Dragone and promoted by Josh Somerhalder. A New Day... Live in Las Vegas is a combination of dance, music, and visual effects. It includes Dion performing not only her biggest hits, but those of other artists against an array of dancers and special effects.
The show has received mixed reviews. Reviewer, Mike Weatherford felt that, at first, Dion was not as relaxed as she should be, the stage was not as creative and colorful, and sometimes it was hard to find the singer as the stage was overwrought with ornamentations and dancers. However, her stage presence has improved, her costumes are more befitting, and her simpler, softer hair and make-up provide for an enjoyable show.[16] The show has also been well-received by the audiences. It has sold out almost every night since its 2003 opening. Dion sold 322,000 tickets and grossed $43.9 million in the first half of 2005, the trade paper Pollstar reported. Billboard placed her show second in the Mid-Year Concert Chart. By the week ending July 17, 2005, Dion had sold out 315 out of 384 Las Vegas shows. In September 2004 the contract was extended into 2007.[17] Dion has compiled her performances into the album A New Day...Live in Las Vegas, which features thirteen live tracks from CГ©line's show at Caesars Palace, as well as two previously unreleased studio tracks; "You And I" and "Ain't Gonna Look The Other Way
