Behind the Scenes: A Sneak Peek into the Extravaganza
Preparing for a concert tour of this magnitude is no walk in the park, even for a seasoned performer like Thalia. We caught up with some insiders from her team who gave us an exclusive glimpse into the making of “Mexican Fiesta.”
The Choreography: Renowned choreographer, Miguel Ángel González, known for his work with Shakira and Ricky Martin, has been tasked with crafting dazzling routines that blend traditional Mexican dance elements with modern pop moves. Expect to see a fusion of graceful waltz steps intertwined with energetic salsa sequences, all performed by Thalia’s incredibly talented backup dancers.
The Costumes: Celebrated fashion designer, Benito Santos, renowned for his vibrant and innovative creations inspired by Mexican textiles and embroidery, is behind Thalia’s stunning wardrobe for the tour. We hear rumors of intricately beaded gowns adorned with shimmering sequins, flowing skirts that mimic the colors of a sunset over the Yucatan peninsula, and custom-made boots crafted by artisan shoemakers in Guanajuato.
The Set Design: Renowned set designer, Ricardo Pliego, known for his work on Broadway productions, is creating a multi-tiered stage reminiscent of ancient Aztec pyramids, adorned with towering palm trees and cascading waterfalls. Projections will showcase breathtaking imagery of Mexico’s diverse landscapes, from the turquoise beaches of Cancun to the snow-capped peaks of Popocatépetl volcano.
The “Almost” Wardrobe Malfunction
But every grand performance comes with its own share of behind-the-scenes drama, and Thalia’s “Mexican Fiesta” wasn’t without its close call! During a dress rehearsal in Mexico City, one of the intricate beaded straps on her custom-designed gown unexpectedly snapped. Luckily, Thalia, ever the quick-thinking performer, caught it just in time with a playful wink at the audience, averting what could have been a major wardrobe malfunction.
This incident further solidified Thalia’s reputation as a true professional who can handle any unexpected situation with grace and humor.
