Céline is thrilled with the opportunity to bring her music to a major theatrical production. “This show marks a turning point in my professional journey,” she said. “It will guide me to self-discovery, to push the limits of performance and offer a new stage experience to my devoted fans.”

The musicians - most of whom have been touring with Céline for nearly a decade - include three background vocalists, two percussionists, an accordionist, a flautist, two cellists, a drummer, percussionist, pianist and two guitarists. Céline’s longtime bandleader, Claude “Mégo” Lemay, will be playing keyboards. The music will range from classic Céline to beautifully-arranged standards to her latest hits. To date, Céline has sold over 150 million albums worldwide, making her the biggest selling female artist of all time.

A NEW DAY… presented by Chrysler will transport the audience to a unique theatrical world; each song will evoke a different visual experience. Dragone will use the screen to evoke the mood within the music and create an environment that transcends the usual physical limitations of theatrical productions. With lighting, projected images, traditional props and remarkably sharp three-dimensional screen graphics, the set for A NEW DAY… presented by Chrysler will place Céline, the performers and, indeed, the audience in European town squares, great city centers, picturesque antique temples and starry sky-scapes.

The Colosseum at Caesars Palace was built by Caesars’ parent company, Park Place Entertainment Corporation (NYSE: PPE), a leading owner and operator of world-class hotel-casino-resorts. A contemporary interpretation of one of antiquity's architectural wonders, the 4,000-seat entertainment and event venue has been specially created for A NEW DAY… presented by Chrysler. The Colosseum will feature a vast performance space and a feel that is at once roomy and intimate.

Park Place is building the $95 million Colosseum as the centerpiece of a new construction program at Caesars Palace that began when Park Place acquired the resort on December 29, 1999. "With construction more than ninety percent complete, The Colosseum already is changing the landscape of the Las Vegas Strip," said Park Place President and Chief Executive Officer Thomas E. Gallagher. "Caesars Palace built its world-wide reputation by presenting the very best. With A NEW DAY… presented by Chrysler at The Colosseum, we’re creating a unique theatrical experience that will live up to that high standard of excellence.”
