About MJ the Musical
MJ the Musical takes you behind the scenes of Michael Jackson's legendary 1992 Dangerous World Tour to tell the story of the man behind the music. As the pressure mounts from record executives, journalists and his own perfectionism, Michael must decide what truly matters — commercial success or artistic integrity.
Featuring over 25 of Michael Jackson's greatest hits including 'Thriller', 'Billie Jean', 'Beat It', 'Smooth Criminal' and 'Bad', the show is a spectacular celebration of the King of Pop's genius. The choreography is electrifying, the performer playing MJ captures his iconic moves and vocal style, and the live band delivers a sound that will have you dancing in your seat.
