I took my 11 year old grandson and he said it was the highlight of our trip so far. The cast was amazing. The set was just as you would expect for a Broadway Show - amazing and the three Michaels were so much like the three stages in Michael Jackson's life. Sad when you think about it but I highly recommend watching it!

It was as close to seeing the real MJ in concert as possible. There were at least 3 standing ovations - that's how good the singing, musicianship and dancing was. Incredible that they found so much talent to play all of the different MJs. Even if you're not a fan (I'm a rock and country guy) you will love it.
