No Sunday performance next weekend.
What's the cheapest MJ The Musical performance next weekend?
Check the performance list above for prices.
Is MJ The Musical a concert or a full narrative show?
MJ The Musical is a fully staged narrative musical rather than a straightforward tribute concert. It uses Michael Jackson's songs to tell the story of preparing for the Dangerous World Tour, exploring his working relationships, drive for perfection and artistic vision.
Do I need to be a huge Michael Jackson fan to enjoy the show?
A familiarity with his music will certainly add to the experience, but it is not essential. The show is structured so that the story, choreography and performances carry you along, even if you only know the most famous songs.
Is MJ The Musical suitable for children?
MJ The Musical is generally recommended for ages eight and above. Children under three are not admitted. The themes centre on creativity, fame and pressure rather than explicit content, but the production is loud, energetic and emotionally charged in places.
How long does MJ The Musical run?
The running time is approximately two hours and thirty minutes including an interval. With a mix of large-scale production numbers and more intimate scenes, the evening moves at a brisk pace.
What kind of dancing can I expect in MJ The Musical?
The choreography draws heavily on Jackson's signature style—sharp isolations, clean lines and precision footwork—while also bringing in new ideas for the ensemble. It feels both recognisably MJ and freshly reinterpreted for a theatrical setting.
About this show
An electrifying deep dive into Michael Jackson's creative world, MJ The Musical invites you inside the rehearsal room for the 1992 Dangerous World Tour. Rather than attempting to tell every chapter of his life, the show focuses on the pressure, perfectionism and sheer artistry behind one of pop music's most ambitious live productions. At the Prince Edward Theatre, high-octane choreography, razor-sharp band work and theatrical storytelling combine to reframe familiar songs as moments of character, conflict and revelation. Featuring over two dozen of his biggest hits, from early Motown tracks to stadium anthems, MJ explores how a shy child star became a global icon, and asks what it costs to live at that level of brilliance.
