He can game and lead the Jackson Five!

"We are shot out of a cannon with our show, right out of the gate and if you're not ready it's an uphill battle trying to get into it." -Apollo Levine, MJ's Rob/Joe Jackson

"When I see my cast mates killing it on stage it just makes me that more determined to keep authentically showing up and bringing my whole self to our story." -Apollo Levine

Dancers Dasia Amos and Sarah Sigman get in a much-needed warm-up.

Elijah Rhea Johnson stretches the quads, a must before becoming Michael.

Time to test out the dance moves.

You have to stretch the hamstrings before you moonwalk.

John Edwards, who plays Jackie Jackson, takes a look at the man in the mirror.

Zachary Downer joins Broadway's Jackson Five as Marlon Jackson.

Tavon Olds-Sample plays middle Michael in MJ.

Olds-Sample has his Michael swagger down.

And of course, you need the iconic jacket.

And now, the finishing touch...

See you at the Neil Simon Theatre!
