If you fancy becoming a Smooth Criminal for the night, then take a look at Our 7 reasons to go and see Thriller Live….
1. Its dedicated to the best entertainer of all time
From Dirty Diana to Black or White, the famous moonwalk to the iconic white glove, Michael Jackson is a soul we will never forget.
He’s undoubtedly the King of Pop and Thriller Live takes you through his career, from the days of the Jackson 5 to his incredible solo journey.
It also makes you fully understand MJ’s talent and why his songs, dance moves and story will live on for generations to come.
2. The singers
Jackson’s story is narrated by four incredible singers, who join together as a foursome, as well as performing solo’s, to bring Michael and his brother’s hits to life.
Their harmonies are on point, their dancing is amazing and their outfits are something else.
Michael would definitely approve.
3. The dancers
Made up of a team of 8, with 4 men and 4 women, the dancing in Thriller Live will take your breath away.
With the talents of the creator of the Moonwalk, the dancers have a lot to live up to and they certainly don’t disappoint.
From Hip Hop to Latin, Back flips to Break-dancing, you won’t be able to keep your eyes of the talented team and the incredible choreography.
4. The MJ tribute
So you’ve probably seen a lot of Michael Jackson tribute acts, maybe in the bars and clubs on holiday but none of them compare to Sean Christopher.
The naturally talented lad has been playing the role of the King of Pop for three years and it’s no surprise why!
His vocals are amazing, his ability to dance is insane and his moonwalk is on point.
You seriously won’t be able to get enough!
5. The Band
A Live Band really makes a show come to life and it certainly does in Thriller Live.
You wouldn’t think that the songs performed by Michael and the Jackson 5 could get any better, until you hear them fresh and raw on stage.
Every guitar strum and beat from the drum in on point and they certainly add an extra something to the show.
6. The songs
