Pretty great show. This show was packed with non stop excitement. The transitions were seamless and on point and blends were wonderful. Very entertaining and satisfying.

Best show Ive ever seen! Very talented performers...My husband and I had a blast. Would love to go back and take our four children. They would love just it as much!

This show was INCREDIBLE! It was really special- mixing the classic Cirq choreography with tech that created a unique visual experience. I would definitely see this show again!

Fantastic show. The story line is good, but the singing, dancing and special effects are phenomenal. There is a lot going on, so sitting at the front is not the best or you will miss somethings going on above you. Best to sit halfway up in the middle section.

Too much dancing and lack of acrobatics. Really good special effects and acrobats. Honestly, I have seen better Cirque du Soleil shows although it isn’t bad.It shouldn’t be allowed to let people get in 20 minutes after the show has started because they make the whole line to stand up and disturb everybody else behind them.

Do you remember. I will never forget. The best show in the best setting. I felt as if I was dreaming. This is definitely a bucklist experience!

It is really amazing! I was not able to see Michael Jackson live. However CIRQUE DI SOLEIL reappearances his show! I was moving and so excited. An early advanced booking is highly recommended for this theater to get a good seat.

Located inside the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, this 1.5 hour show features a bevy of Michael Jackson hits and video montages. The show is quite engaging—wonderful light effects and dancing. The best seats in the house are upper level, center.

The venue is very nice and the seats are comfortable. The views of the stage were very good from where we sat. The performances were amazing. It was absolutely mind blowing! The dancers and acrobats are so talented. All the classic Michael Jackson songs covered with great skill and precision. Some aspects of the performance will leave you speechless! If you get a chance when in Vegas definitely go and see this performance. Highly recommended!

Amazing show! I only had three shows to pick on my weekend get away and this one was the best out of the three. The funny thing is it was the most affordable . I didnt want it to end, great music, dancers were so entertaining and the Special effects were out of this world. The theater was comfortable and Spacious. I would recommend this show!!

Being a huge fan of Michael Jackson, I was really excited to watch Michael Jackson ONE by Cirque du Soleil. Imagine an extraordinary fusion of acrobatics, dance and visuals to MJs greatest hits! Its no wonder Rolling Stone described it as “A virtual parade of ‘wow’ moments. I truly felt MJs spirit. We we were in awe, we clapped, and we danced! One of the highlights of our Labor Day Weekend trip and will absolutely watch again in a heartbeat! Dont miss this if youre ever in Vegas! ️

So good that I shed tears... the best Michael Jackson snow I have ever seen. Played all the best music, did all the right things. I highly recommend this show to anyone coming to Vegas. Everything about it was amazing. All the performers were perfectly executing everything to the highest professional level.I wouldn’t have changed a thing. Thank you so much for doing MJ right. I loved it from start to finish.

Unbelievably intense, from start to finish. The loud, clear music, the million special effects, lasers, lots of moving lights, projections. Everything technically there is to offer is thrown at you times 10. Really needed some time while the shows over to recover and get back to normal. Would visit Vegas just for the show.

Awesome show. Try to get seats a bit away from the stage, itll be a better experience. Big thumbs up!

We really loved this show. The music is magical and Michael Jackson, the man, was and is intriguing and the show is honest in this regard. The show starts off with a boom and moves on quickly with smart connections between lights and sound. All in all we felt entertained and satisfied. We recommend to see it.

I love Michael Jackson, and this show made me cry. He wouldve been proud of this show.

This show was amazing. The music obviously is why you would go but the talent of the performers is just outstanding. This is a visual experience that immerses you in the show and the performers are everywhere hanging from the ceiling and coming up the aisles. The degree of difficulty of the acts is so high but they make it look so easy. It is worth watching for a second time.

Outstanding show. Weve see it twice now and we highly recommend it. Kids loved it too. In seat experience with epic music and performances coming from all directions.

More of a dancing spectacle to MJs music. I was disappointed not to see much acrobatics during the songs. I didnt come to see dancing and hear music I can watch on youtube. Seats were comfortable, view good no hindrances sitting near the back.

Fantastic show! All of Michaels hits. Some of his videos played during the show. Would go again and again.

We went with a group. We liked Michael Jackson but not super fans or anything. Show was a disappointment. Part of it made no sense. Ie the characters they brought in which had nothing to do with MJ. They also picked a bunch of his really dark songs and left out a bunch of popular ones. Love cirque. Really enjoyed Love. But they dropped the ball on this one.

Don’t miss that One !Such a great gesture and contribution for the legendary Michael Jackson. He was an artist with all of his heart, a talent, a beautiful soul, a dancer, a singer, a writer, a donator, a philanthropist, a LEGEND. This show is a great way to continue living the spirit and the music of Michael Jackson and you should definitely be a part of this experience.

Fantastic show! Seen it with the spouse about 4 times now. The music, the dancers, and the gymnasts are all amazing. Its definitely the second best Cirque show in Vegas (imo), with O being the lead. Even if you dont like Michael Jackson, its still worth seeing because its visually entertaining.

I went a while ago and it was an incredible experience

I was expecting a lot more from this show. It wasnt bad, good artists but I saw other shows in Vegas more impressive and with more energy. It doesnt worth the money.

This show is wonderful! the music sounds great, the choreograph did an amazing work, the circus is mind blowing, especially the number sone on trampoline- wow how is it possible?! and Michael is still alive... you can feel him

First thing I told my friend when the show ended, Michaels music carried that showAnd second thing Ive said probably 20 times since I saw the show, you needed to end it on the hologram, how do you not end it on the hologram? It was the peak of the show! Emotions high! Who thought doing a couple more sets of people dancing after that was a good idea?!?

Absolutely amazing!! Saw the show tonight and it was INCREDIBLE!! Loved every minute of it. Money well spent for sure! It’s a must if your looking for something great to see!!!

Was hoping it would be something we could bring our kids back too. I wouldve wholeheartedly done so, if it wasnt for the pole dancer in a dominatrix mask and less than there costume. It didnt add anything to the show to have her dressed that way. I understand its Vegas, but still. I feel like it cheapened the experience...and made it a no go for our our family. Otherwise, okay show, great music, some beautifully done costuming and certain dancers were unreal! Volume was overdone and the storyline was...a little unrelated in some ways. BUT, not a terrible way to spend an evening. Wont go again, sadly.

Nice show. I like the others better. This is also crazy annoying to get too because you have to take two trams to get there. My pictures are from floor seats with free upgrades.

4 times viewed. Never gets old!

I for one am a BIG MJ fan. I attended a few years ago (2013) with great expectations. They were met, unfortunately 15 minutes into the show I was escorted out by security because I was enjoying the show and singing along. This caused me to be so mad that I refused to come back (the tickets arent cheap!) and give it another try.Well time has passed and I yearn to see a performance so we came back this year (2019) on his birthday. I, again, have great expectations. The show itself was not disappointing (if you are a fan of Michael). They honor his message he has portrayed in his concerts and are keeping the message going. I dont however, appreciate the security putting a flashlight in my face for applauding the work of the talented performers. Once again, they dont want you to express your happiness of being there or your gratitude. You have to wait to the very end of the show to show any kind of appreciation. I know this is NOT what Michael would want for his fans and thats why I score a 3 for the show. Not because of the show itself but because you have to contain your excitement/gratitude which downplays the whole experience of celebrating him . If youre not a big fan then you will have no problem. But if you are, Godspeed.

WOW what a show!The production, choreography, acting,comedy magic and hologram was outstanding and all set to some well selected MJ tracks .The show was on point from start to finish.Weve been to many shows and this is one of the best.So a BIG well done yo all dancers, lighting, crew and sound engineers Highly recommend this show. 10/10

Ok..I liked it... somewhat. The 4 characters that were in it were unnecessary. They were annoying to the point that I almost lost interest in the show. The girl with the guitar, though somewhat talented was so ugly and made her looks even worse by making ugly faces. Complete turn off. The acrobatics were amazing... loved that part!!

Took me back in time... great show although would have loved more dancing like in the videos. As a whole Hreat show

Great show, great performers, great tribute! We had seats about midway up and thought these were the BEST seats. Do not sit any closer as you miss a good amount of the show. Performers use the isle ways, walls, and ceilings so the closer you sit, the more you miss. But, you don’t want to miss this show!

Good music, great performance, wonderful production. Closer seats are well worth it but all seats provide a good experience. Recommend this event-

This show was packed with non stop excitement. The transitions were on point and there blends were wonderful. The gift shop was full of several options and great variety. Id definitely see it again.

Michael Jackson one (2019) is the best ever. If youre in Las vegas, this show is a must to see. Better yet, put this show on your bucket list. My God, the performance is perfect. I cried, laughed and finally rejoiced. The performers interact with the audience and were surprisingly entertaining. I loved the experience. I am looking forward to seeing this show again. Thank you. Thank you.

What a fantastic show. Sonically and visually one of the best Cirque du Soleil shows of all time. I definitely recommend seeing this one! And theres not really a bad seat in the house.

THIS SHOW WAS AMAZING!!! I didn’t know what to expect but I got more than what I imagined! I wish I could have seen it again! From the acrobatics, to the dancing and the choreography, the costumes, everything was exciting and breathtaking. I couldn’t stop dancing and singing along in my seat. We were entertained and engaged from the beginning to the very end. I want to go back to Vegas just to see it again!

Wow, what a show!! A lot of love has gone in to this production - I was fortunate enough to see an earlier Cirque Du Soleil production called Immortal, which Im pretty sure was always meant to be a touring show. Also very good.But MJ One benefits from a permanent theatre base in that its more intimate, the sound & visuals are simply breathtaking and you get a good view from wherever you are sat - although personally I would choose about a third of the way back and dead centre.Granted, I am an MJ fan, but anyone who knows his core hits will enjoy this magical journey.Yet again bravo to the Cirque team

Great choreography and overall great show. But no Michael Jackson impersonator. Definitely recommend seeing this show.

It was an amazing experience, I definitely recommend it. I really enjoyed it. Make sure you use the restroom before the show starts because the dancers walks through the stairs as well and you don’t want to be in the middle of the show.

Outstanding show!!! Ive seen Michael Jackson 3 times in my life and this is the best experience yall ever get to experience his talent and performance ability since he transitioned!!!

Google? How do you give six stars? Absolutely amazing. The best performance I have ever seen on a stage or in a stadium!

Was well choreographed but don’t come if you’re just wanting to see elaborate stunts like “O”. Most of it is dancing, so if you aren’t into that I don’t suggest it

Such a wonderful experience! The dancers were amazing, costumes were amazing, set was amazing and the holographic pd michael himself was amazing! A must see while you can

I’ve seen other Shows like “O” and unlike “O” that starts off a little slow this one is the opposite. Light, lasers, and of course the music was great. By far my favorite Cirque Du Soleil show to date.

Awesome show! The music, dance, and other acts were all great. Would recommend to everyone and enjoyed it more than the Beatles Love

Amazing performance all your favorite Michael Jackson hits definitely one of my new favorite shows

The upbeat energy of the show, the music, and the preformers were amazing. As a parent of a special needs child the young dancer that was missing a leg really struck a cord for me. It was an amazing show

Like many Cirque shows the story was the weak point. But that really didnt detract from a fantastic show. It was like a concert/music video/show, rolled into a great performance that had a bit of everything: special effects, acrobatics, dancing, etc, etc.Id go back to see it again.The venue itself is one of, if not the best Ive been to. Ingress/egress was efficient, the theatre had great views, seats were very nice.

Just saw this show tonight with someone who watched the show last year and says it was better last year. I have to say the show was good but not great. I understand that MJ can’t be duplicated but I do strongly believe that the show should’ve been better. Michael was a perfectionist and I know if he saw the performance I saw tonight that he wouldn’t be too impressed but would appreciate the effort. There was entirely too much hopping around in most of the numbers. I felt like there were more tricks than anything else. All in all the dancing could’ve been better and the show could’ve been better. Now the pros of this show are there are magical moments and there are moments where you feel that MJ is there with you. I would recommend this show to everyone. The price for the tickets weren’t bad. The person I watched it with did say there were a lot of new dancers there so hopefully theses dancers are here to stay and they will work on improving as time goes on. NO RECORDING ALLOWED at all! They are very strict about phones

Great show with lots of special effects. The show itself was amazing with lots of MJ music. For those of you who love MJ, this is a must see event if you are in ♤♡Las Vegas◇♧

You must see this and tell me how to explain it.I mean there is no words to describe the show.Just the best ever

Ive been to Las Vegas a few times and when I do I like to see shows that I havent seen yet. I like Michael Jacksons music so I thought I should see Michael Jackson One by Cirque du Soleil. I gave it a shot and did not care for it. It started off with guys climbing over people in their seats almost hitting my Dad in the head. He wasnt too happy about that. Then the show began. They played the hits and had some singing moments, but there was not much Cirque involved other than jumping around. I kept wondering when it was going to be over. Not a show I would recommend when visiting Las Vegas.

I found the musical fantastic! I liked very much the show all the way. The sound effects, the dancers, the high tech used during the performances and the Michel songs calling attention to Love, Peace, Harmony and Iguality. I strongly recommend it.

I don’t usually seeing things like this, however this was amazing and well worth the money.

We had a bad experience! First, the positives. Clean, comfortable seats with speakers built in the headrests, talented performers. Now, the bad. Main bad thing, they never finished the show. The curtain closed and they asked us not to get up for about 40 minutes (not exaggerating) because the show will resume. The show never came back on so we all just started leaving without any refund. Thats a lot of money to pay to watch everyone around you surf Facebook. They played old MJ concert videos to try to pass the time with the house lights on. That leads me to the next negative, the acoustics are the worst Ive ever endured. It was just constant noise and you could barely understand lyrics. If it wasnt for the recognizable beat, or the stage acting during the little show we saw, youd never knew that Thriller was actually the song being played. Last big complaint, the foam they spray from the ceiling to make it look like its snowing leaves crusty debris as it dries. We left looking like we all had dandruff or recently visited an ash factory. The picture attached is what the audience stared at waiting for the show to come back on. Hard way to endure 40 minutes of Please stay seating, the show will resume shortly. I took the picture because so many people in front of us decided to leave already that it was getting amusing.

Slow beginning...should have NEVER sat in the front row! Back seats are the BEST for this show Didn’t understand the guys juggling the hats nor the Karate girl performer but it all played out in the end! Hologram made me speechless

Great show. Tell all your friends.

Starting from the lobby is all impressive. Got into the atmosphere, where everything says about the legendary Michael Jackson. Scene of shakarnaya. The actors are superb. I plunged into the world of music and shows. It was on top.

The show is located in Mandalay bay hotel,once you get to the casino floor its easy to find!The show was amazing..great song selection of all Michael Jackson hits and the lighting/productions was top notch!

I’ve now seen every Cirque show in Vegas and this one is definitely one of my favorites. The show is great!!!I grew up listening and really enjoying MJ and had hesitated to see this show as I wasn’t sure it would live up to my expectations.Wow! Was I wrong. This show goes above and beyond what any MJ fan or non-MJ fan would expect.This show is a must! It worth the money and time to go see. Once your done you can check out the casino too as Mandalay Bay (where the show is located) is a great casino/hotel and has a lot to offer.

The hubby and I saw this show last night - it was a good show but we werent amazed or blown away. As a hard core MJ fan we were hoping to see more of MJs amazing moves and choreographed dance routines. They missed some of his big hits like Remember the Time, PYT, and Rock with You and added some slow songs that were not as popular. Actually we both embarrassingly fell asleep during one of the slow songs. I actually thought the order of song arrangement could have been better as well.As a Cirque du Soleil fan we were hoping to see more amazing acrobatics. There wasnt hardly any stunts as one may be used to seeing in a Cirque du Soleil show.On a positive note we had amazing seats (103, E, 3-4) at a reasonable cost. The seats were comfortable and great sound acoustics. Im definitely happy that Ive checked this off my list and if you are an MJ fan its worth seeing.

Outstanding show especially if you loved the music and magic of Jacko. I cant wait to see this again.

Not what I expected. The show was a spin off of Cirque du soleil. Dancing, musical, etc. Exact description. If this is what you want, go for it. Otherwise dont waist your time or money.

When reading through reviews, it’s so interesting to me that there are people who don’t like this show. I’ve seen other Cirque shows and they’re all amazing, but this was actually my favorite. The energy and talent are captivating, even through the darker, slower parts. Yes, there are parts that were a little strange or hard to follow, which are present in every Cirque show, but I thought the acrobatics and dancing were phenomenal. If you don’t like Michael Jackson, skip this one, but if you’re even a slight fan of his music and dancing, you don’t want to miss it.

Absolute fun! Typical fanfare and fun that surrounds Cirque du Soleil shows. I have only seen this one and O at the Bellagio both of which were awesome. Excellent performers, venue and staff. It is also fun to take a look at the lobby of the show during the hours when it is closed. Very well put together and entertaining.

It is absolute perfection. The performers are outstanding, and the technical work required to create a masterpiece like this - very very well done.

My husband and I purchased great seats for a pretty penny however we were not impressed with the dancers at all. There was a lack of energy and feeling in their dances moves. It looked as if they were just going along with the choreography. Michael Jackson was a phenomenal dancer and hit his moves HARD and anyone that danced with him or for him delivered the same. These dancers missed the mark and we were extremely disappointed. My husband sat there the whole show seeming to be bored. We are HUGE Michael Jackson fans and was looking forward to this performance. This was supposed to be the highlight of our first Vegas trip only to be sadly disappointed.

A great show and tribute to the amazing MJ!The pole dancing act felt a little “Vegas Strip Club” like and sometimes I had a feeling the storyline was gone missing. But overal a great show with amazing performances and amazing dancers. I would go again

Definitely a must see. The show is incredible and does more than justice to Michaels music, message, and dance.

This is by far the best Cirque du Soleil show ever. It is awesome right from the beginning till the end. My kids aged 5 and 7 had a blast. It was my husband’s fourth time and my second time to this show. We carried our noise canceling headphones for our kids and it was very helpful but you can request for disposable ear buds and the staff can bring you some. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. It is very nostalgic to see the hologram part of the show. The dancing, acrobatics etc is spell bounding. It was worth every penny and I look forward to seeing it again when we visit Vegas. Please go see it if you at in Vegas and you would be amazed.

If you are a MJ Fan you will enjoy it regardless. The sound was definitely LOUD!,but how often are you able to blast MJ music that loud? it was not blaring music,the sound system in the theater is amazing. The show has a few surprises from the sky and at the end. Show is about an hour and 35 minutes. With mostly greatest hits,from the beginning of his career to his last album. Performers are great but this is NOT your typical Cirque du Soleil show. No major acrobatic or Gravity defying moves like World Away or even Beatles love,if you are hoping for that,this is not it. The shows story is pretty self explanatory and easy to follow but fall short in comparison to other shows. MJ fans will enjoy the dancing,the glove,the socks,the hat and the songs. I wish it had more Iconic dance moves and perhaps a good MJ impersonator. Bought tickets last minute. Almost every section was sold out for both times 7 & 9. I got a 25% discount for having a MB card. Tickets came out to be $145 each,got 3 seats on section LL seat 5/6/7. Views were great,you got a full view of the stage and all performers.

I cried at least six times. There are screens behind the main stage, and screens on each side of the stage and they all are floor to ceiling. The way this interacts with the performance on stages (that also go up each side of the theater as well as above) is very impactful. We hear Michael and get glimpses of him and his past performances but the show is nothing I expected. Everything done enhanced and honored Michael Jacksons work. So moving. And the seats have speakers built into them so you truly are completely surrounded in every way.Just entering the lobby was a big thrill. All the staff are in attire that pay homage to Michael Jackson and the display in the lobby -- another WOW moment.

Loved it! Wasnt too sure in the first 10 minutes what Id let myself in for but it did really get going. I wasnt too sure what exactly the 4 children represented within the whole performance, they just kinda popped up and random times and it wasnt clear what the relevance was. However the dancing and the music was everything youd want from a Micheal Jackson show. Its a must for anyone visiting Vegas and a must for any MJ fans.

Music of course is awesome, coupled with choreography, lighting and props, this is one experience you don’t want to miss!

Amazing! Full of energy, fun and talent. Definitely worth a watch.

Overall was an okay experience. I agree with a lot of people in terms of what a Cirque show should look like and this failed to deliver. The upgraded free seats were a bonus. The theater wasnt a sell out. Performance was average. Beatles love experience far superior!

I thought this show was FANTASTIC! Im kinda amazed at the wide range of reviews, then again if youre not an MJ fan, maybe this isnt your thing.I had no problem with the recorded tracks or volume. i prefer to hear the original music. The creativity is in the performance. I didnt expect perfect dance moves, because there is only one Michael. However, the dancing is still great. There was one dancer with only one leg and he blew my mind! He was incredible!! I also didnt understand the story as many have said, but it didnt take anything away from the show at all.I usually prefer his upbeat songs, but i found the slower songs to be done so beautifully I was moved. I enjoyed the entire show but especially loved Billie Jean with a completely black stage and just the neon outline of multiple dancers lighting up at different times. And as a bigger MJ fan than the average person, I LOVED the hologram of Michael during Man in the Mirror. I teared up since I was never able to actually see him perform in person. Its the closest Ill ever get. And the mashup off Human Nature with Never Can Say Goodbye was nothing short of awesome!I live on the east coast but am already planning another trip to Vegas just to see this show again. If youre an MJ fan, you will not regret checking this out! I cant get this show outta my head. Nothing but love here!

Excellent. Very entertaining. The acrobats were wonderful. Loved the show.

The venue has comfortable seats that have speakers in the headrest. Found the the aisles are quite narrow for average to tall people which made it uncomfortable due to lack of legroom. to be too closelyAbstract storyline. Lots going on in true Cirque fashion. Amazingly talented entertainers. Gifted dancers (there is even a one legged dancer on crutches with grace, agility and upper body strength), guitarist, acrobats, trampoline work, and great music.There is even a scene with Michael Jacksons hologram singing and dancing with the troupe. Very well choreographed and outside the box. It was a memorable show. Two thumbs up.Be prepared for the late arrivals who come late. It is distracting when the ushers have to seat them and they lock your view. There should be a disclaimer that if you are morenthan then minutes late, you cant enter.

This was an amazing show. The choreography was amazing and the special effects were wonderful definitely a first class show

Everything was great but the photographers kept skipping customers. As if they were choosing their customers by the clothes they wore or if they looked good. Outrageous, the other show had more photographers and went around. The guy photographer just stands by the wall while the girl kept moving.

So beautiful! All perfectly done. I simply loved it

Amazing show!! I recommend if youre in Vegas, make sure to catch it!

The only part that we enjoyed was when Michael was on the screen dancing. Save your money & go see anything else. Mostly dancing & they never did the lean move that you see everywhere here in Vegas. Very disappointing because I only wanted to see this while here for my bd. So wish it would have been more acrobatic & less dancing. Still trying to figure out the plot to the story. What are the red eye beings about? Just sad because love Michael & love his music.

Amazing show! Such a great tribute to his genius!

Fantastic show. Great performance and choreography and a world class show. The only downside was the number of people who were coming and going during the performance including arriving well after it started which was disrupting for the audience.

This was absolutely worth it! the show incorporated technology, music, dance delivering beautiful visuals. Michael appears as hologram during different times in his life. Chilling and moving!

The cirque show was wonderful. I love the inclusivity and passion of the performers. I didn’t appreciate that ushers kept seating people 15 minutes into the show and made it extremely hard for us to enjoy the first part of the performance. Also the storyline was also confusing.

Incredible show and a great experience. This was my first ever Las Vegas show and it left a great impression on me. I would definitely recommend this show to anyone.

I have to give a big Kudos to Destiny who was working the ticket box office on the afternoon of February 18th. She was absolutely amazing in helping me with my purchase for my clients and was a wizard in helping me decide which seats would be the perfect viewing angle. I cant thank her enough for the help she provided as well as the amazing experience she provided. Thanks again and Ill definitely be back!

Do not expect a Michael Jackson impersonation. Great show though ... Nice sound and light effects that goes with the performance of the dancers. However not worth more than USD 100 and I paid 250, thats a rip off!... I give it 2 stars because its just too expensive ....

Loved the athleticism and choreography. Brought me to tears on some songs. Wish for a greater representation of Black and Hispanic performers.

We loved the show from beginning to end! Great music and theatrics! The cast used the entire theater and kept you completely entertained. My husband loved the “Thriller” part. I loved that they used all his hits and had some original video footage and even attire of Michael Jackson on display.

If u like MJ, this show will make you of happiness, absolutely amazing creativity by Cirque Soleil

It wasnt worth the money. WAYyyyyy too loud. I was extremely disappointed. The dancers were lackluster. Seats in the back are probably much better. The lack of plot and the media conglomerate they were trying to paint as the bad guys is them. They are just making dollar bills off a poorly created, lazy rewrapping of Michael Jacksons story. Such a waist of talent, skills, artists and resources.
