Went to see this last week on my birthday!
Thriller Live is a celebration of Michael Jackson's work, and has been running since 2005. It features over two hours of non-stop songs from MJ's career.
The first half of the show takes you back to the days of the Jackson 5, and the early part of Michael's solo career. The cast performs songs like 'ABC', 'Blame It On The Boogie' and 'Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough' to name a few.
The second half was my favourite, as it featured more of the songs that I'm familiar with. The dancer who performed in the 'Smooth Criminal', 'Dangerous' and 'Billie Jean' numbers was excellent! He even looked like MJ in the famous white 'Smooth Criminal' suit, and the hair hanging over his face (see the pictures below). Like I told my friend, those numbers were probably the closest we came in seeing a Michael Jackson concert :)
I enjoyed the show, but would've liked to see more of the MJ look-alike. However, the rest of the cast wasn't bad at all - I'm sure the performance of 'She's Out Of My Life' moved a lot of people to tears.
And if you wondering whether you get to see Michael Jackson's famous Moonwalk in the show? Yes!! And it is delivered in style!
