MJ the Musical

The Producers Lia Vollack Productions and The Michael Jackson Estate have announced that the multi-Tony Award winning Broadway musical MJ will make its way to London’s theatreland, landing in the West End in 2024 at the Prince Edward Theatre. This is the second Jackson musical, this time revealing the background to the artist’s extraordinary Dangerous World Tour in 1992. MJ will be directed and choreographed by the Royal Ballet Associate Artist Christopher Wheeldon OBE, who said, "I am thrilled that MJ will come to London, having been embraced by New York audiences since it opened. Michael Jackson had a profound influence on popular culture, as well as all of us as performing artists, and this musical is an exploration of that artistic mind and a creative process which is unmistakably Michael Jackson.”

Wheeldon is joined by an exceptional creative team packed with award winners and nominees, and the cast will be announced nearer the time. If you’d love to know the background to the Dangerous Tour that made the man into the legend he remained for the rest of his life, this one’s for you. As the book writer for MJ, Lynn Nottage said, “As a Black musician and a pioneering voice in the music industry, Michael Jackson demanded inclusion, broke incredible barriers and in the process made indelible music that continues to resonate, delight and move listeners today. I am drawn to his complicated, singular and uncompromising creative process, and to understand where, why and how he made his music." If you’d like to know more about the character behind the magic and the music, this one’s for you.

Fantastic from start to finish
Wowzers! What an incredible show! The whole thing was stunning from start to finish. Myles Frost was absolutely amazing as MJ- exceptionally talented and took our breath away! His voice and dancing was identical to MJ and the story/ song represented the best bits of his life.

Dashing and breathtaking
Myles Frost gives MJ well deserved justice. The show celebrates the King of Pop and shows the side to a man who wore the heart on his sleeve. Absolutely dashing performance, choreography and costumes 🥇
Katarzyna, 26 Oct 2024
A must see
I watched this show with family and we all really enjoyed every moment. The actors were superb, story was very easy to follow, special effects were amazing and the music and singing was absolutely fantastic. I thought the organisation of the theatre was really good and important for me as a 76 year old was that the toilets were easily accessible and very clean. I would recommend this theatre to anyone.

History about Michael Jackson
It was fantastic, really good show, nice to understand for people who has a medium level in English but for those who have a bad level in English well.. it’s hard to understand.. But very nice show by the way !

Heather, 23 Oct 2024
Must see
Amazing show, all the great songs featuring jackson 5 and MJ. Mj was fantastic both young and old but especially the grown up one. Very believable and great singing & dancing. Would have liked more of the song thriller. That would be my only suggestion. All in all a fabulous show.
Jackie, 22 Oct 2024
Michael Jackson is alive
If I didn't know that Michael Jackson was no longer with us I could have sworn I have just seen him the MJ musical Absolutely sensational
David, 19 Oct 2024
Colourful immersed experience loved it
Was a great show staging lighting and music was on piont and everything you could hope for when you think of a mj musical I also enjoyed that it's brought up issues to do with race and touched on the issues that mj had without taking away from the show.
Jessica, 19 Oct 2024
Excellent show
Amazing show. Music brilliant. Great story.
MANDY, 19 Oct 2024
Underwhelming
Please read this as my sincere impression and not criticism just for the sake of it. The main actor did a phenomenal job at representing the great and wonderful Michael Jackson in all required aspects like dancing, singing, speaking and reincarnating his demeanour. A few of his colleagues were also outstanding, such as teen Michael, and the voice of the lady who plays his mom is jaw gasping. The rest of the show however feels like it cannot contribute the energy and charisma required to give this show the “show” quality it feels it’s missing. The lights, the set, the characters, the story…The only moment when I felt an energy buzz was when the lights came on for thriller…for the rest unfortunately it was all good, but not the exceptional I’ve had the fortune to experience on the west end or broadway.
Anna Giulia, 18 Oct 2024
Amazing !!
Amazing show went afternoon show , would off watched again that night !!!
Kevin, 18 Oct 2024

Myriam, 13 Oct 2024
Fabulous from start to finish - a must see!
Took my daughters (21&24), whilst they'd heard of MJ, they certainly hadn't known his early music or life story. They were ambivalent about going. All of us were absolutely WOWED. What a show! Costumes, acting, lighting, staging were all incredible. A real must see!
Rebecca, 13 Oct 2024

Claudette, 12 Oct 2024

How can u pay to watch anything with Micheal Jackson in it and not sing or dance. Completely alien, Micheal Jackson would be turning in his grave but not dancing cause that’s not allowed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vivian, 04 Oct 2024
Must see show in London
Entertaining fun and great value.
Louis, 04 Oct 2024
Absolutely fantastic!!
Fabulous show. We saw Kwame who was an understudy for MJ & can honestly say his portrayal of Michael was amazing. All the performers acting, dancing & singing skills were brilliant. Ladies just allow plenty of time to go to the rest rooms as queues were very long.
Susan, 04 Oct 2024
Wow! 10/10
A truly amazing show. Impressed about everything to be honest. Magic! Wow.
Marius, 04 Oct 2024
Must see
Everything and everyone was excellent .
Tina, 03 Oct 2024
Interesting
Mj world was insight into the entertainment business. Faith is an individual search. You cannot slave for two masters. You will end up loving one more than the other. Demons exist my knew that and put that across in song. A nice voice if entertainment for others to choose the correct path.
Winsome, 02 Oct 2024

Absolutely fantastic
MJ the musical was absolutely fantastic. Everything about it. I was pleasantly surprised how good our seats were. Considering they were the cheaper ones ( grand circle L 12-13). My daughter (15) and I thought it was brilliant from start to finish.
Rosalyn, 28 Sep 2024
Brilliant ❤️
The show was absolutely brilliant! Michaels music journey is told with such brilliance and the switching between his past and current timeline is done so subtly it’s brilliant. The cast that play MJ from the young to current fantastic. His voice is perfect, wow ❤️❤️. ‘Thriller’ was superb!! You get to hear snippets of his music so if you’re expecting a concert you may be disappointed! Definitely recommend to go and see it! ❤️❤️
Nilima, 28 Sep 2024
Mesmerizing
Myles Frost was mesmerizing. Lighting was spectacular. Show respectfully reminded us what a tough life MJ lead despite and because of hi talent and fame. Well done to all. Made us love MJ even more.
Barbara, 27 Sep 2024
Great show!
Really enjoyed the show, the music was great and reminded me of how brilliant MJ was. Story was ok, once we understood how the show was telling the story.
Jo, 27 Sep 2024

Jean, 25 Sep 2024
The singing, dancing was outstanding. As a lifelong jackson fan i was in no rush to see someone trying to be michael jackson but myles frost and the actors playing michael in his younger years were just brilliant as were all the cast. The theatre is also
My top shows up to now are le mis and phantom of the opera. They have been joined by mj
Brian, 25 Sep 2024

Magical show
Cast was amazing
David, 21 Sep 2024
WOW WOW WOW
This show is a definite must for anyone interested in MJ’s world. The story gave me the true meaning behind the songs. So well written / produced. The costumes, the artists, the actors the whole shabang was amazing. Our seats in the stalls were perfectly positioned enabling us to see the entire stage. I did struggle at times to hear MJ speaking, didn’t spoil the show for me though.
Theresa, 21 Sep 2024
You Gotta Love MJ!
A trajín figure who died too soon. He was a truly gifted musician and I don’t really believe that he was a Pedo…I think when you don’t play big musics games they come at you from all angles. Was an excellent show. The Michaels did a great job especially the main actor ….well worth going!
Terrence, 20 Sep 2024
Absolutely out of this world
If you're an MJ fan. Even if your not. This is an incredible way to spend an evening.
Noelle, 20 Sep 2024
Myles Frost's performance is uncanny!
Whatever you think of MJ, and the main rumour about him isn't addressed in the show, if his music has been a back drop throughout your life, you'll love this show. The singing and dancing are fantastic. I just wish ld ignored the announcement to refrain from dancing until the end!
Cristina, 19 Sep 2024
Amazing mj tribute lead
If you love mj’s music and see some amazing dance routines then go but not impressed with the storyline
Barbara, 19 Sep 2024
Absolutely brilliant show
This was a great show. Loved Michael Jackson and this show tells the story of his life brilliantly...the music and cast are outstanding. Would highly recommend
Jackie, 18 Sep 2024
Sad
Used to be more energetic more creative with high interaction with audience in the past fee years than today show
Noura, 16 Sep 2024
Choreography could have been better
Micheal Jackson was a perfectionist when it to dance, show didn’t represent that
Anna Maria, 15 Sep 2024
Brilliant Show
Order a drink for half time - took ages to get served. Otherwise, a fabulous day out and a brilliant show.
