Suggested Ages: 8 to 14+
Centered around the making of his 1992 Dangerous World Tour, this flashy musical celebrates the singular moves and signature sound of the star while exploring the creative mind and collaborative spirit that catapulted Jackson into legendary status.
The plot is not much and avoids exploring problematic aspects of Jackson’s life, but electrifying choreography dazzles and the songs are so good.
⏱ 2 hours and 30 minutes with one intermission
❤️ The show is set before any accusations of pedophilia; it is not referenced at all.
💥 Flashbacks show Jackson’s father verbally and physically abusing his kids. The monsters in ‘Thriller’ are super creepy.
🎟 Enter the digital lottery by 3 pm the day before for $35 tickets.
