Great Tribute to a Great Artist As a fan of Michael and the Jacksons since childhood, the show is a great tribute to their music and success in an era and industry which was so tough for black musicians. The story was really well told in between the great music and dances with good scenery and special effects. Really enjoyed hearing Michael's songs live.

A convincing performance of an intriguing story (and you can’t beat the Jackson repertoire)! The lead character played a very convincing Michael Jackson! Lead vocalist were excellent (the reporter in the story had an exceptional voice that I would’ve loved to have heard more).
Some pitch issues out of the younger actors and at times vocals were drowned out by the backup Orchestra. That said, the band and Orchestra were excellent.
Very entertaining! I absolutely would recommend this show to anyone!

Fantastic! A wonderfull play. Great acting singing and dancing. And worth visiting because of the story of MJ that will be present (partly of course).

Creative and thoughtful show The show was amazing, I hadn't known what to expect but I think the way it was done, transitioning in and out of his early life was very creative and well done. I would've liked more songs but it was brilliant nonetheless. The actors were amazing, they captured the true essence of MJ, I was really moved. Singing was amazing and all the Michael's did a fantastic job as did the other actors . Would go again and would recommend.

Charlie, 10 Aug 2025
Nice show We wasn't able to understand the main actor speech sadly. But the show itself was decent. The dances, the songs. Nice show overall.
The plot was meh.
Yosef, 09 Aug 2025
Not as good as I thought it would be Personally we thought there would be more MJ hits in it .
We found the performance was slow .
The child MJ was really good though.

Seema, 24 Jul 2025
Good show Dancing and singing up to standards. Fans of Michael Jackson will be pleased. However some epic songs are shortened leaving audience unsatisfied or wanting more.

David, 19 Jul 2025
Colorful and fun to watch very entertaining The whole cast worked so hard to put this together and the show was amazing thank you for making a great birthday
Sharon, 18 Jul 2025
Incredible dancing Best suited to those who love the music of Michael Jackson, it dramatises the period before his early 1990’s Dangerous tour, with flashbacks to his childhood. Poignant and thought provoking.
Karen, 17 Jul 2025
Phenomenal musical! I saw the MJ musical twice, loved it both times !!!
Maria A., 16 Jul 2025
Outstanding & A Must See! The show was outstanding! The music, the acting the production the stage the band the dancers were all incredible. It really is a class act of a show. The sets were beautiful, I havent seen a play in a long time that has been this good. I went with my family from Australia and we were all mesmerized the entire time. Well worth the time and money.
Anushka, 15 Jul 2025
OMG!! 🤩 Absolutely fantastic show! Amazing cast and band, wish I could go and see it all again - but have to go home to Hong Kong 😉
Jo, 14 Jul 2025
Was ok It was ok, a lot of acting but actually not that much singing (or just a part of the songs). MJ voice and dancing was not comparable to the original MJ
Sebastien, 13 Jul 2025
The best musical in the West End by a mile! The most exceptional acting, singing and overall performance I’ve ever seen. I will be seeing this again and again and again because I just want more!!!
Sabina, 12 Jul 2025
Fabulous musical theatre show! Took my 12 year old daughter who absolutely loved the show. She has seen many musicals and now this is at the No.1 position as her favourite. Great show very nostalgic. Wonderful cast with great energy. Don’t buy AA tickets got stiff neck but it’s what I could afford. Would love to go again.
RAFAELLA, 10 Jul 2025
One of the best experiences of my life Keep your phones off and enjoy the moment. Don’t bring noisy/crispy food, it’s annoying for other people. The show was energetic that is what made it so good.
Christiane, 09 Jul 2025
A fantastic portrayal of MJ It’s a story about Michael from his early childhood as a young star told through “Michael” as an adult. The singing, dancing and acting were all brilliant, especially Jamaal who plays Michael Jackson. Great cast; fabulous show. Would highly recommend.
Diane, 07 Jul 2025
excellent show we tried to see this in USA but prices were so high . More affordable here and easier to get to see it on shorter notice.
amazing music, excellent dancing and well written and choreographed. story a little sad but the show was enjoyable and excellent. i understand his life and the story behind his songs so much more. May he rest in peace and hopefully found the happiness and fulfillment he so desperately sought
Warren, 04 Jul 2025

A must see! MJ the Musical is a must see, an absolute blast & simply amazing!!! It is nonstop entertainment & a true insight into the career highlights of a musical genius, dancing master and greatest entertainer of the 20th/21st centuries. What a brilliant show- the dancing, singing, live music, clever time jumping storyline, sets & performances are all first class. This musical enables you to feel Michael Jackson’s incredible spirit, legendary talents & iconic status no matter what age you are. It is a total thriller, chiller & killer of a show!!!
Benjamin, 16 Jun 2025
Amazing. Probably the best show I have ever seen.

Excellent Show A fantastic show of great talent in both singing and dancing.
Michael’s story bought to life and told in a brilliant and sensitive way. The singing and dancing blew me away.
Melinda, 09 Jun 2025
Disappointing Must be interested in MJ’s life, too much story, not enough music.

Angela, 06 Jun 2025
a journey through time Great actors, great stage designs but in my opinion there were too many flashbacks to youth, which took the momentum out of the show
Annette, 06 Jun 2025
Brilliant show The whole show from start to finish was absolutely brilliant. The performers,music and story held your attention.would definitely recommend MJ.
Grahame, 05 Jun 2025

Great show Show was amazing to watch and would recommend to any musical fan.
Story gave me chills as I felt I was there in the story.
Leandra, 03 Jun 2025
Please respond with an answer Why near the end was the show halted? Was there a technical issue or an injury?
Jack, 02 Jun 2025
Spectacularly done! I took my 10 year old son to see MJ Musical at the Prince Edward Theatre in London on 29-May-25. We had not seen the trailer or learned about the show before our visit, so I was thinking that the show was akin to a concert, with the actors singing and dancing Michael Jackson's most popular songs back-to-back. This wasn't the case, but I was pleasantly surprised with the arrangement of the show, which took the audience through key moments of Michael's life up to when he started his Dangerous tour. It was spectacularly done! All the actors were superb, but the actor that played Michael (André Phipps) really did shine - and literally!
Fariha, 30 May 2025
MJ the musical - brilliant show!! The premise of the story was clear from the start - the music was unexpected, and it was good to hear some less popular songs alongside the big tunes. Great dancing, guys!! Well done!! The female singer (MJ's mothe's character sang SO well!! Great voice!!
Shamima, 27 May 2025
Outstanding! Without doubt one of the best live shows I’ve seen.
The actors playing MJ are absolutely on point. Incredible voices and dancers - just like the man himself! Could mistaken for the real thing.
Brilliant story line full of emotion, energy and entertainment throughout.

MJ musical Abs fan bloody tastic. MJ was fab, so full of energy and real likeness to MJ in spirit, energy, voice, rhythm. And the rest of the staff were fab-u-lous too! Second time we have seen it and loved it just as much!
janet, 08 May 2025
Incredible talented group! Challenging not to leave the theatre dancing - any MJ fan or anyone curious about his music should enjoy. Balanced the sadness with his joy of music.
Diane, 07 May 2025

Great show - amazing dancing and set! If you like MJ's music, this is for you. Couldn't believe how well MJ's character and moves were portrayed! The precision of the dance and the whole set up was amazing! Seeing the show gave me a bit of comfort not having seen MJ perform in real life! Thank you!

Brilliant Memorable experience
Katherine, 25 Apr 2025
A Must See For Everybody I went with my wife, and 3 daughters (ages 16, 14 and 10) and we all thoroughly enjoyed the show, returning again 4 months later to watch it again!. It is unlike any other show we have seen - by far the best theatre production I have seen in my 35 years of theatre attendance. Everything is borderline perfection - the music, lighting, sound, costumes, storyline, pacing, dancing, acting, and oh the vocals ! Just incredible. Whether you are an MJ fan or not, don't debate this - just go ! You will be positively thinking and talking about it for weeks later.
Ismayeel, 24 Apr 2025
Amazing entertainment Great show for all ages but especially for people who loved Michael Jackson in his prime
Georgina, 24 Apr 2025
A must see! It was very entertaining. The main character was so real. It brought MJ back o life.
Hannatu, 23 Apr 2025
A must see! Great show, great staff in the theater, fantastic
LAETITIA, 21 Apr 2025
MJ story without a story The musical is a series of MJ hits arranged in a chronological order as he tells the story of his success to an interviewer. In my opinion, the story lacks a true character. MJ is shown as a lonely person not willing to talk about his life that is perhaps true, but some more details would make the story more entertaining. The music is too loud for my taste. All in all, MJ fans were enjoying the show, as I noticed.
Maria, 20 Apr 2025
Belting! Loved the show. Great entertainment. Theatre staff great too. Thanks everyone involved❤️
roy, 19 Apr 2025
Must see! It was an incredible show, everyone was absolutely amazing and of course the one playing MJ was unbelievable! Everyone who loved MJ will be very excited to see that show!

Diana, 16 Apr 2025
A must for every MJ fan All the dancers were really fantastic. Congratulations for their performance.
Mihaela, 15 Apr 2025
Fantastic !! A superb and uplifting production that brings Michael Jackson’s story to life through his own eyes. It offers a poignant glimpse into his childhood, the complex relationship with his strict father, and the personal demons he faced as an adult. All of this is powerfully underscored by an electrifying score of his greatest hits.
Sharon, 14 Apr 2025
Amazing voice and excellent acting with decent stage The actor for Michael was amazing! The voice, the moves, the looks - everything was there.
All the popular songs were included and the atmosphere in the audience was great.
Anniks, 14 Apr 2025
Best show ever! My husband is the most reluctant ‘show goer’ ever … he only bought us tickets to make me happy … afterwards he said MJ was The Best Show he has ever seen. Loved every minute of it! As did I.
Michelle, 13 Apr 2025
Perfect lovely What a phenomenal fantastic show that was! We had such a great time being able to sing, dance and just enjoy the music from the legend Michael Jackson. The cast and crew were amazing. Really just an outstanding performance. If we could give more than five stars we would.
