He is one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Now, Michael Jackson's unique and unparalleled artistry comes to cities across the United States as MJ, the multi-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 was so fun! A really fun musical for all. Great dancing, fun props, lights, and pyrotechniques.
My dad, sisters and I absolutely LOVED this show. We are avid theater goers but gravitate towards more traditional broadway shows. We are always hesitant when a new show pops up but MJ did not disappoint. The star of the show was phenomenal! We would’ve thought we were watching Michael Jackson himself. The music, dancing on vocals were amazing. Would highly recommend!
The music and dancing was amazing! The people playing Michael were so talented and the adult Michael was so believable it was hard to remember it wasn't him. All the actors were top notch. I also learned a bit from the story being told about the pressure faced by those that entertain us. All in all it was one of the most enjoyable evenings of musical theater I've experienced.
Music was great. The acting was great. The actors were genuine. I thought I was at a real Michael Jackson concert. It brought me back to my youth. If you enjoyed the Jackson 5 and Michael Jackson this play is a must see.
Very well staged production. Great music, singing and stage effects. Excellent tribute to an excellent, one of a kind, entertainer
Not knowing what to expect, I was transported & engrossed by the story, the music & the dancing. The costumes, the stage props & lighting were miraculous & spellbinding! Most striking was the talent of each performer, through all the decades of MJ’s life. It was truly a masterpiece & a beautiful tribute to Michael. I left completely exhilarated! I would see this again & again. I loved it!! Thank you to the cast for a performance that will linger for a long time!
I loved, loved, loved the music, the dancing, and the impressive talents of every performer. I was, however, unable to understand most of what was being said in conversation when Michael spoke. I was sitting about one third of the way up in the balcony.
Amazing, wonderful, incredible. Everything about it blew me away! PHENOMENAL!!!
This musical show was jaw dropping, amazing. MJ, MJ Junior, little Michael, the Jacksons 5, Joseph, the dancers all did such an amazing job! Like really seeing the real Michael. The music, the band, the choreography, dresses, effects. Excellent is an understatement. We LOVED it!!
Loved the story of his life mixed with all the great music and dance moves. Great show!
