Aussie dancer and choreographer Shannon Holtzapffel dreams came true when he was selected to be one of Michael Jackson’s back up dancers on his comeback tour. Due to Michael’s sudden death last week the dreams for Shannon and the rest of the cast to perform on stage with Michael to his greatest hits seemed lost forever. The show was completed and in the final rehearsal stages. So the question is will the the promoters and stakeholders just shut up shop and move on or will the show go ahead without the star?
