While reviewing the advance storyboards for the new Elvis Presley spectacular, Priscilla Presley has assured Cirque du Soleil officials that she will be in Las Vegas for its world premiere.

Lisa Marie Presley has confirmed that she will attend the premiere, as well. Elvis' daughter attended yesterday’s 10 p.m. performance of Cirque’s Beatles Love show at The Mirage, Lisa’s second time at the musical.

Son Benjamin Keough, husband Michael Lockwood and a group of friends accompanied Lisa. Michael and she sipped Absolut and grapefruit during the show while enjoying a night out without their twin baby girls. After the performance, the group was escorted out through a backstage door for their waiting limo to return them to their villa at the Bellagio.

Priscilla Presley competed on Dancing With the Stars during Season 6.

During her visit, Lisa Marie told Cirque officials that her mother had recently seen some of the storyboards for the new show, which is set to open at a yet-to-be announced date in December at the new MGM CityCenter complex. Lisa Marie added that they would all be in Vegas attending its world premiere.

The Elvis Presley production would follow Cirque du Soleil’s other Strip shows: Mystere, O, Zumanity, Ka, Love and its newest, Believe at the Luxor with illusionist Criss Angel.
