Norwegian Cruise Lineis putting Whitney Houston centre stage aboard its newest ship. The cruise line unveiled the entertainment lineup for Norwegian Aura, which is set to debut in May 2027, led by the new original production “Whitney: A Celebration of Whitney Houston. Developed in partnership with The Estate of Whitney E. Houston and Primary Wave Music, the production will celebrate the late music icon through contemporary arrangements, storytelling, visuals and live performances. The 45-minute show will be staged in the three-story Aura Theatre & Club, combining live vocals and a live band with immersive visuals and performances that extend beyond the main stage. The setlist will feature some of Houston’s biggest hits, including “It’s Not Right, But It’s OK,” “I Will Always Love You” and “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me).” “Every new ship is an opportunity for Norwegian Cruise Line to push the boundaries of what entertainment at sea can be, and with 'Whitney: A Celebration of Whitney Houston,' we're building on the incredible momentum we've seen from our Vegas residency-inspired productions celebrating some of music's most iconic artists," said Bryan White, vice president of entertainment production at Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd, in a press release."Following the success of our Prince and Elton John productions on Norwegian Aqua and Norwegian Luna, respectively, this new show reimagines Whitney's legendary catalog through contemporary arrangements, dynamic storytelling, stunning visuals and powerful live performances. Together with original experiences like ‘ILLUMINOX’ and ‘The Vinyl Republic,’ we’ve created a collection of entertainment that transforms every venue into a destination and every evening into something unforgettable."
