The best musical and the most spectacular dance in all of Broadway to date.
Brought MJ back alive. Cast was amazing and of course the music was superb. Loved it.
I thought the show was ok, not great! There were some slow moments and the lead was hard to hear at times.
The show was entertaining especially the dance numbers. The theatrics were great during those scenes. However, the show was not worth the ticket price. We paid $240 for orchestra all the way in the back. I’ve been to multiple theater shows and never paid that much. Being in NYC on Broadway is one thing, but this was a touring show in Baltimore.
The show was amazing The cast is unbelievable I really enjoyed the show I see how his father was not a very nice man
One of the best shows I have attended in years. Long Live The Legacy of MJ!!! Money well spent!!!
The MJ Tour was fantastic. Watching all the characters brought me back to my childhood days, when I use to dance. Everyone deserves 5 stars. I can’t wait to see you all again next year. I highly recommend! ⭐️
All the performers were amazing but, the actor playing MJ was excellent!!! I never got a chance to see MJ perform live but, I felt that this musical was the next best thing.
I have seen a lot of great shows but this one was by far the BEST! The music! The dancing! So nostalgic! I love how the songs reflected the conflict that was taking place. It really gave a new and deeper meaning to the already very meaningful songs! Beautifully done!
A great show! The staging, dancers, and cast were all stellar.
Great performance from beginning to end. The acting and singing were phenomenal! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
The dancing and the singing were first-rate. I saw the show at the Orpheum in Memphis, TN, but it felt just like I was on Broadway. If I had to make any change, I would have eliminated the portrayal of Michael's father Joe being such a tyrant. I would highly recommend this to anyone who loved Michael Jackson and the entire Jackson family, speaking of which there should have been some mention of his sisters.
This was an incredible show. I would recommend everyone that has a chance to go see it.
This was by far the best show I’ve seen at the orpheum!! Such incredibly talented people just WOW!! Over the top!!
It was my favorite show all year. Relived a younger time. So much fun. Players were fantastic. So much energy. You could feel it!
MJ was fantastic! The costumes were great, the dancing was fantastic, the acting was the best, and the music was totally MJ. I was sitting downstairs but not up front where I would really have loved to be, up close and personal. I came because of Devin Bowles, who went to school with my grandchildren, where I saw him in high school musicals, so I knew he would be great. But he was beyond that, he was superb in his role of Joe Jackson. All the dancers totally nailed the MJ moves. Some friends who sat upstairs said they had trouble hearing some of the dialogue, I didn't have any trouble. I would go back again in a heartbeat but only if I could sit down front so I could see the facial expressions. I would have loved to have had a video of the production, but was told those were not available and would have loved to been able to take pictures but I understand why that was not allowed. The Orpheum is a beautiful place and the perfect venue for anything.
This was such a a phenomenal performance. I would've regretted it forever if I had not seen it. Everything from beginning to end was absolutely amazing.
This show was fantastic and better than I even expected it to be. The cast was top notch. I loved everything about it.
