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.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Worthy of the King!
by Opinionator on 9/5/23James M. Nederlander Theatre - ChicagoUnbelievable show. I've seen the Las Vegas One show (which I loved), but that one was more about the spectacle. MJ has no shortage of that, but it also tells the story of the Michael Jackson legend very beautifully. Do not hesitate to catch it if you have the chance to, especially if you're an MJ fan.
