  • Fantastic!

    by Tara on 2025-11-14Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - EdmontonRating: 5 out of 5

  • Beyond words!

    by DanRich on 2025-11-14Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium - EdmontonRating: 5 out of 5

    Full disclosure: I am not a fan of MJ's music, my husband is. BUT, this was one of the most spectacular productions and performances, ever. Energy, emotion, perfection. Clearly the cast loved what they were doing. MJ's story was told in an interesting way with past and present woven together seamlessly through the use of lighting and slight costume alterations. The music and dancing are beyond words: if Michael was driven by perfection, then this cast embraced that mantra and fulfilled his greatest desire. Really, a must-see.

    What an incredible show! All of the actors were spectacular in their roles! Such a privilege to see this show with my daughter who also knew multiple songs. He still has such a following after being gone for so many years. He truly was a one of a kind performer who will always live on with tributes like this show!

  • Out of this world

    by Karembou on 2025-01-07National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    The event was amazing, lifting, always asking for more. The work did show some world class performance that you can’t blink to avoid missing anything. Brovo to the choreography, direction, performance and to the crew on stage. Amazing work !!

  • Great music and Choreography

    by Kattmlt on 2025-01-07National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 4 out of 5

    Really enjoyed the show. Of course, it helps when you know his music. One criticism was the orchestra, at times, overpowered the singers and that included the lead singer who portrayed MJ. Had a difficult time hearing the lyrics when it was a song created for the production. Overall, though worth the price of admission.

  • Utterly Fabulous

    by DRW on 2025-01-07National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    MJ musical was utterly fabulous. To be honest, I could not take my eyes off of MJ and his feet. The dance moves were genius.

  • Excellent

  • Spectacular!!!

    by Alma on 2025-01-07National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    A truly spectacular show! We loved every minute of it. We’ve always loved Michael Jackson, and this was such a beautiful tribute and opportunity to re-experience all his greatest hits along with the storyline of his own memories of his life. LOVED IT!! I highly recommend it, and would definitely see it again given the chance.

  • Exceeded All Expectations

    by Louise & Katie on 2025-01-07National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    This show was fabulous. The talent of all of the singers and dancers was superb. I loved how the show focussed on MJs artistry - his creative genius. His wishes and dreams. And still acknowledged his demons. Jordan Marcus, who played MJ, was amazing - we all know MJ so well, all of his moves and idiosyncrasies, and Jordan captured them all. There were only two sad things about the show. The first is that it was not MJ on the stage. The second is the Ottawa, Ontario audience - there was no energy in the room, save for a few, people stayed in their seats even when the cast was inviting people up. At times we were embarrassed and felt bad for the cast. But that is the pathetic, lethargic culture of Ottawa! I would like to see the show in Washington DC, NYC or Detroit!

  • Best Broadway show I’ve seen!

    by Willow on 2025-01-07National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    This was an outstanding, fast paced, interesting history of Michael Jackson and his rise to fame. The actor who played him was fantastic, he stayed in character and was a great singer and dancer. All of MJ‘s big hits were covered as well as lots from the Jackson 5. It was one of those shows that you did not want to end. !! Al the cast were fantastic, loved the show!

  • A truly amazing show

    by John from Ottawa on 2025-01-07National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    From start to finish, it was a blast. Emotional, powerful and with the amazing music and dance you would expect. Shout outs to Devin Bowles for his dual performance as Rob the caring manager and the, shall we say, complicated, Joe Jackson. But all the performers nailed it.

  • What a show!

    by Sly Foxglove on 2025-01-06National Arts Centre / Centre national des Arts - OttawaRating: 5 out of 5

    My fiancée wanted to introduce me to her idol in a wag I was familiar with (musical theatre) they did a beautiful of capturing IT'S passion for his music and the troubles he faced along the way. Powerful dance segments and on point vocal representation.
