It’s human nature to want to see the smash hit musical, “MJ,” so if you are excited by the news that it is coming to the France-Merrick Performing Arts Center, home of the historic Hippodrome Theatre, know that you are not alone. It is set to make its Baltimore premiere Nov. 12 – 17.
Individual tickets are on sale now for the multiple Tony Award-winning musical centered around the making of Michael Jackson’s 1992 Dangerous World Tour. Widely praised as one of the greatest entertainers of all time, Michael Jackson’s singular moves and signature sound that make people want to rock with you, jam, and even leave blood on the dance floor gets a rare look in this show.
His creative mind and collaborative spirit catapulted him to legendary status in the music and dance world, and the creators of “MJ” remember the time when Jackson was the King of Pop. He began performing in 1964 as a member of the Jackson 5 with his older brothers Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, and Marlon. By 1968 they had signed with Motown and Michael Jackson was the lead singer.
In 1971 he began his solo career and was well on his way to becoming a global icon with his 1979 album “Off the Wall.” The album “Thriller” — the best-selling album of all time — cemented his status with the songs “Billie Jean,” “Beat It”, and “Thriller.” He popularized the dance move the “moonwalk,” and somehow made wearing one glove amazingly cool.
Jackson’s album “Dangerous” is from 1991 and is the subject of “MJ.” It is playing to sold-out crowds on Broadway, in cities across North America, and in London’s West End. Beginning July 30, Jamaal Fields-Green will assume the title role of “MJ” after being the first and only person to achieve the distinction of playing the role in all three global productions: on Broadway, on the National Tour, and in London’s West End.
