"I'm so excited to be choreographing for the iconic Legends in Concert. The show is older than I am but it doesn't look a day over 21," Schwimmer playfully quipped.
The opening number will feature the song "Legends Never Die" which highlights this beautiful theme threaded through the musical tour de force.
"We are ecstatic to present an opening theatrical number for the first time in the show's 34 year history. Opening the show with a customized ensemble piece is a concept I have wanted to integrate into the show for quite some time," said Gina Adams, Vice President for Legends in Concert. "Lacey's award-winning talents have dazzled fans on 'So You Think You Can Dance' and 'Dancing with the Stars,' and we're thrilled to collaborate with her expertise to bring our vision to life."
Legends All-Star lineup for the Atlantic City show from June 29 through August 13 at Harrah's The Concert Venue will feature tributes to Prince, Madonna, Elton John and The Blues Brothers with selected dates for Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks and Justin Timberlake.
