Celine Dion set for another year of 'New Day'
Celine Dion 's Las Vegas production is set for another year-long residency in Las Vegas.
The French-Canadian singer debuted her Las Vegas show, dubbed "A New Day ... featuring Celine Dion," in March of 2003, and played on about 150 nights during her inaugural year at The Colosseum, a venue built at Caesar's Palace specifically for the production.
The show--which features a cast of 48 dancers and plays to a crowd of more than 4,000 fans each night it's live--recently marked its 1 millionth ticket sold, according to organizers.
The production plays Wednesdays through Sundays during select weeks. It ranked second on concert-industry magazine Pollstar's year-end list of 2003's top-grossing live shows, taking in $80.5 million.
Tickets for Dion's Las Vegas shows through early February are currently on the market; the show's itinerary through early 2005 is below.
Dion recently released "Miracle," a collaboration with baby photographer Anne Geddes consisting of a CD, DVD and a book. Dion recorded 13 songs for the project, including the new title track and her renditions of classics including "Brahms Lullaby," "What a Wonderful World" and "Beautiful Boy."
