- As part of the show, the actors instructed the audience to buy Mortal Kombat amulets at the concession to stand to save the Earth.
- Joseph Acavedo (Kano) did not speak English at the time of the tour's run.[citation needed]
- Hakim Alston (Jax) portrayed an Outworld warrior who was defeated by Liu Kang (Robin Shou) in the original Mortal Kombat movie a year earlier.
- Fight coordinator Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa also appeared in the movie, playing Shang Tsung.
- The laser visual effects were produced by Laser Fantasy International of Seattle, and were operated by Dave Haskell and Chris Thornberry. For these effects, a medium frame Spectra Physics and a 40 watt laser scope were used along with a custom fiber system.
