‘The Million Dollar Piano’, is being performed to standing ovations during Elton’s current residency at Caesar’s Palace and includes all of Elton’s greatest hits from throughout his career including ‘Rocket Man’, ‘Tiny Dancer’, ‘Saturday Night’s Alright (For Fighting)’, ‘I’m Still Standing’, ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’, ‘Crocodile Rock’ and ‘Your Song’.

At the centrepiece of the performance is the show’s namesake piano, an engineering marvel featuring more than 68 LED video screens created by Yamaha. Nearly four years in the making, the state-of-the-art piano is the perfect accompaniment to Elton’s greatest hits displaying fantastical imagery to complement the entertainer’s fan favourites. Creating a whimsical, one-of-a-kind entertainment experience, the piano weighs in at nearly 3,200 pounds.

Completing the incredible spectacle is the show’s impressive and elaborate baroque style stage set, masterminded by the show’s design team, the late Mark Fisher and Patrick Woodroffe. Fisher (best known for his design of Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” and his work designing the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Olympics) and Woodroffe conceived and designed the impressive lights display that perfectly augments the set and piano.

"I am thrilled that my Million Dollar Piano show will be coming to cinemas worldwide," Elton told Rolling Stone. "I am so very proud of the show. It has something for everyone."
