MJ was top drawer
"All around Excellent Broadway experience- I ended up picking the show for my group because no one was making the call, so I was hopeful it would be as good as the reviews suggested. I regretted missing it when it came to Boston last year so it had been on my radar. The caliber of the performances was outstanding- their voices, choreography, acting- so good. Brought back memories of my youth but appropriate for any age since the music is timeless and should be celebrated. "

"Honestly, I did not think I would like this show. I booked it primarily for my partner. However, not only did I enjoy it, I thought it was superb. It was excellent and all performers were first class. I would highly recommend it to anybody young or old (like me)."

"I was not a big Jackson fan but after this play I will definitely take another lol at his music. The lead was amazing in his portrayal of Michael. The rest of the cast was excellent as well. Just a wonderful play which I would highly recommend. "

Simply stunning!!
"Bravo!! This show was so well done. We were seated on the balcony, and I would highly recommend the balcony seating for this show. The dancers were wonderful, and the story was a very poignant look at MJ — an extraordinary artist. I found the story uplifting and inspirational, despite the untimely ending of his life. If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend you see this show. Well done!! "

A story that everyone needs to experience!
"This show felt like time traveling into Michael's life and experience. It was a lot more than I expected. It wasn't just a concert; it was a story involving the greatest artist in history. It was a retelling of everything that happened to him that everyone should watch at least once. I couldn't count the number of times I got goosebumps just listening to the music, almost as if it was actually Michael. The entire cast and crew deserve all the praise for all the hard work they put in and the incredible talent each of them has. Obviously, the source material is incredible, but I could feel the heart and soul of each cast member, which only enhanced the experience. This is the best show in Broadway by a mile. This is definitely a story that everyone needs to experience at least once in their lives."
