Halsey Offers a Peek Behind the ‘For My Last Trick’ Tour Curtain: How a Team That Includes Top Broadway Veterans Came Together to Create One of the Year’s Most Ambitious Pop Shows
Halsey and the choreographer, cinematographers and production designer for her 'For My Last Trick' tour talk about what went into the ambitious show.
The singer’s current outing, dubbed the “For My Last Trick” Tour, is one of this year’s most impressive pop road shows — a must-see for veteran tour-watchers, even if you don’t think you care about Halsey (although you should), just for its high level of creative ambition and innovation. One might tell you that it’s a highly stylized succession of Broadway-style setpieces, with drastic changes in scenery, costuming and choreography from one production number to the next, and lots of filmed content, in the tradition of the most elaborately theatrical tours by Taylor Swift or Madonna. So it’s another layer of challenge.” (At one of the early stops on the tour, in Durant, Oklahoma, the whole production proved too big for the stage, and so Halsey and band did without the sets and basically improvised an entirely different show, giving that audience a unique treat… even if they missed out on martini glasses and checkerboards.)
