Centred around the making of his 1992 Dangerous World Tour, MJ the Musical goes beyond the singular moves and signature sound of the star, offering a rare look at the creative mind and collaborative spirit that catapulted Jackson into legendary status.
Created by Tony Award®-winning Director/Choreographer Christopher Wheeldon and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage, MJ the Musical is now playing at Sydney Lyric Theatre.
Loved every bit of it. If you are going to see a musical, this is it. The storyline, cast, main lead and dancers were nothing short of spectacular.
MJ the Musical was phenomenal. I loved every second. From the moment it started, the energy was electric and never let up. The talent on that stage was mind-blowing. Every move, every note, every beat was delivered with such precision and heart. It genuinely felt like the closest thing to seeing Michael Jackson live. The choreography, the storytelling, the music, all of it was done with such care and respect for his legacy. I was completely immersed from start to finish. If you’re a fan of MJ's music and dance, this is an absolute must-see. Highly recommend!
Easy to purchase tickets online. Great seats in the stalls. Very polite and helpful ushers and staff in the general areas.
Went with a group of friends from work and loved every minute! The singing, dancing, set design, and of course, the music, were all absolutely brilliant. A powerful, high-energy show that does justice to MJ’s legacy. Highly recommend!
Second time I have been to see MJ the Musical. Both times were brilliant, loved the show, the dancing and singing were so like Michael Jackson. Great set changes, vibrant, loved it.
I took my son to this not realising how much I would love it. The seamless transitions, the singers, dancers, scenery and storytelling - not to mention the amazing musicians and lead talent (MJ was incredible). It honestly left me breathless and buzzing afterwards. It was flawless and a show I would go and see again and again. I highly recommend this to anyone who even slightly enjoyed Michael's music. You will not be disapointed. BRILLIANT!
Fabulous show could not believe how wonderful the whole dance team were. Congrats to the producer, curator and all the performers. We are definitely going again when it heads to Brisbane. Can’t stop talking about how great the show is.
Absolutely phenomenal, every aspect of this show was a must see
As always well taken care of by box office and other staff. As an elderly woman this is always appreciated. I saw the Sunday matinee and the cast was fantastic, especially the young man playing the main Michael Jackson. I would recommend seeing the show before it closes.
Brilliant show from start to finish! The music was fantastic, the characters were captivating and performed true to the story. Loved every minute. Everyone had a dance and sing-a-long at the end, it was fabulous!
