About

The music. The moves. The icon. Now, the unparalleled artistry of one of the greatest entertainers of all time comes to Chicago first as MJ, the Tony Award®-winning new musical centered around the making of the 1992 Dangerous World Tour, begins a tour of its own. Created by Tony Award®-winning Director/Choreographer Christopher Wheeldon and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage, MJ goes beyond the singular moves and signature sound of the star, offering a rare look at the creative mind and collaborative spirit that catapulted Michael Jackson into legendary status. MJ is startin' somethin' as it makes its North American Tour premiere at the James M. Nederlander Theatre in August 2023.

    by Safo on 9/11/23James M. Nederlander Theatre - Chicago

    It was a great show, but the parking app from Ticketmaster didn't work. They owe me $20.

    Worth seeing again & again

    by Rubecube on 9/8/23James M. Nederlander Theatre - Chicago

    This is the type of musical production that you will catch yourself smiling throughout the show. The actors/dancers, the band the sets where captivating and held you at the edge of your seat. And we were even given an opportunity to do what we wanted from the beginning of the show. I don’t want to spoil the surprise but you’ll know what I’m talking about if you go. So please go

    Amazing Experience

    by Amber on 9/7/23James M. Nederlander Theatre - Chicago

    This musical was absolutely phenomenal! Using Michael Jackson's music was a perfect way to tell his story. The actors playing Michael don't impersonate or mimic him, they embody him. The entire cast did such an amazing job I went back to see it again. Job well done!

    A Remarkable MJ Performance!

    by Nita on 9/6/23James M. Nederlander Theatre - Chicago

    I thought the show was great! It was like reliving the memories of watching him perform as he did during the height of his career. It was well choreographed; the lighting and special effects were awesome and the actor who played Michael, from the dance numbers to his mannerism and voice was perfect. Knowing that I didn't get a chance to see other tribute performances over the years, this Broadway musical I definitely couldn't miss. It was well worth it, and I will pay to see it again if it ever comes back to Chicago. I recommend this performance to all MJ fans or anyone that has enjoyed watching him perform throughout the years. Love you always Mike. A MJ fan for life!

    Fabulous

    by Lady le on 9/6/23James M. Nederlander Theatre - Chicago

    This play was beyond words. The music was on point. I also appreciated the fact that his personal issues were not sugar coated. I am a big Michael Jackson fan and this was an excellent play.
