He is one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Now, Michael Jackson’s unique and unparalleled artistry has finally arrived on Broadway in a brand-new musical. Centered around the making of his 1992 Dangerous World Tour, and created by Tony Award-winning director/choreographer Christopher Wheeldon and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage, MJ 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.
"I loved every moment of this show. It was like a MJ concert. I was so sad when it was over. "

"Amazing musical showing MJ’s upbringing and his career. The story about Michael and his family is told and shown with empathy and humor, avoiding (too much) black and white (pun intended) views and judgment. And the dancing and music was just top notch.
I would go see it again - totally recommend it, especially for people who grew up listening to MJ. "

"My daughter and I went to the 1pm performance on July 3rd at the Neil Simon theater in NYC. The musical was Fabulous. The dancing and singing was incredible. The entire cast was brilliant and the leading MJ role was played by a man who was made for the part. His singing and dancing was flawless. He sounded so much like Michael and his dance moves we impeccable. I highly recommend everyone who enjoys Michael Jackson's music and dancing to see this musical. It was the best on I have ever seen.

"I'm just a nobody from Australia but we were only in New York for 1 week, we wanted to see a Broadway show and landed on MJ the Musical and I am so glad we came!!
The entire show was incredible, the cast were terrific dancers and their vocals were amazing!
The way Michael Jackson through his ages was portrayed, was respectful and accurate. All the different aged Michael's sounded so similar but I very much enjoyed later life Michael, his speaking voice, dance moves and singing voice was insane (I had to keep telling myself I was not looking at the real MJ).
I learnt a lot about Michael Jackson and his life last night and at times got really emotional listening to his music in such a way, remembering all the incredible and influential songs he had written and sung since he was a child.
4.5 stars just because I feel like it could've been longer, more detail could've been given to certain areas and I think there were quite a few songs I wish they sung just a little bit longer!
Bravo to everyone, this was a Broadway production I will never forget! "

"A good storyline, great dancing, great vocals (some of my favorites were the few songs by “Michael Jackson’s mother”), but the lead Michael Jacksons and others were very good. The storyline really told the story of MJ’s background and rise to stardom. Lighting and visual EFX were all top notch."

"I enjoyed the play for its storyline and the seamless way the characters moved between past and present. Elijah Rhea Johnson could be Michael Jackson, as could Tavon Olds-Sample and the winsome, Austin Rankin who portrayed MJ at various age appropriate stages. Overall it’s a beautiful tribute to the late Michael Jackson."
