Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie hit Sin City to treat children to Cirque du Soleil’s Michael Jackson extravaganza

Last updated at 7:53 AM on 18th December 2011

Of all the places in the world to spy Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and their brood, Las Vegas is probably one of the least likely.

Brad, 47 , has an affinity with the Nevada playground, after filming the Oceans films there with his friend George Clooney, 50 , but it’s not the kind of place to take the family.

Until tonight, that is, because Brad and his beautiful 36-year-old partner were spotted in the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino for all to see.

Family night out: Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh arrived at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino tonight

Sadly they weren’t wielding a champagne bottle fresh from a wedding chapel but instead rather adorably braving Sin City to treat their four eldest children to a musical extravaganza.

Ten-year-old Maddox, Pax, seven , Zahara, six, and five-year-old Shiloh were all present as the family headed to the show which celebrates the work of the late Michael Jackson.

Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour is the official theatrical production by Cirque du Soleil which uses the music and vision of Michael Jackson along with Cirque du Soleil’s signature acrobatic performance style to create a realistic concert experience.

Dressed up: The family looked smart for their evening together, daughter Shiloh stuck to her masculine attire while Zahara was feminine

Get ready: The clan prepare to see the critically acclaimed show

The arena show, which is very similar to a rock concert, began its tour October 2, 2011.

After touring North America for about two years, it will continue on to Europe and the rest of the world.

At the point in time it leaves North America, a resident show, which will be more theatrical in nature, will open in early 2013 at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino located in Las Vegas, Nevada.

In addition to the resident show at the Mandalay Bay, Cirque du Soleil will also be opening up a Michael Jackson-inspired lounge.

The Michael Jackson estate has partnered with Cirque du Soleil in order to create this concert experience. As part of the $250 million contract with Sony allowing music publishing until 2017, an album was produced.

The concert is currently the number one concert in the world according to ticket sales

@All 6 kids were there:

I just noticed that too. Thanks for pointing it out. Of course this is a party of EIGHT! Hey, it is for the kids but for Dad as well. Do you guys remember Brad wearing a MJ “Beat It” T-shirt? Brad obviously is a great fan too. I am sure they had a ball.

Zahara is so cute with her braids!
I hope i don’t have to read from African American women about how her hair is “Bad”. I am from Ethiopia myself so I hate when they do that. All hair is beautiful.

@spreading xmas joy:
its the same show

happy birthday brad pitt

Here is Brad in his MJ ‘Beat It’ T-shirt. IIRC this was taken on the MAMS set, but I’m not sure?

i was looking for more pictures on twitter but couldnot find any

I can’t see Viv with them. Is she there too.

Pax’s plaid pants are cracking me up. I like Z’s braids but I have no doubt that by noon tomorrow the Black Hair Police will be ragging all over Angie about even though for 6 years they’ve screamed that Angie should do better with Z’s hair. I can hear it now, “Why she got that baby’s hair pulled back so tight?!” and “She gonna damage that baby’s hair with those braids!” It’s lose-lose. That Newsweek chick’ll probably be all over, too…

How cute.I think Brad is holding Knox’s hand who is in gray suit and is also holding Viv’s coat.maybe they had a nanny along and she took Viv inside before the rest of them.
