Thriller Live musical is based on Michael Jackson the legendary singer. Thriller Live is a concert-style show and is not based on the songs of Michael Jackson. This musical anthology shows Jackson's early years as a teen sensation belting out ABC with his brothers and sisters to his breakthrough solo album 'Off the Wall and beyond'. This show is a fabulous celebration of a legendary singer spanning over thirty years. Thriller Live renders a high energetic visual show with most of Michael Jackson's famous collection of songs. The choreography is unbeatable. The audience is captivated singing, dancing and living each moment of the show. Evening standard has aptly said the 'Jackson show has thrills but no plot'.

The show starts with songs of Jackson 5 and also some solo's enchanting the audience, from 'JUNIOR JACKO'. As the play proceed some more of the songs are there and Jackson is seen older and in act 2 during the heart-stopping and crowd-delighting Thriller there is rustic old footage of a graveyard similar to the video of Thriller. You will not find a single song of Thriller Live, which is not engrossing and the dance ...
... team deserve a separate mention for their superb performance. None of the actors look alike Michael Jackson but have deadly similarity of his voice. The LCD screen behind the stage unendingly projects the flashback of photos and career of the legend. A live band supports both the singer and the dancer but it remains unseen. The costumes are contemporary and real. Jackson Shuffle has copied Michael's spins, glides and the original dance steps along with the white suit and hat, which impress the audience. The show is live and therefore quick changes in costume were inevitable which was superbly adopted. The concert casts West End performers including signers, a live band, choir and incredible dancers paying tribute to the king of pop. The dances and the songs are so engrossing that the audience were compelled to move to the isle and rock themselves. The whole package of the show/concert was brilliant and extraordinary. It's like Michael has numerous representatives reminding the world of his influence and depicting him as a legendary phenomenon, which he was, is and always will be. The two hours of the show keeps the audience spell bound with the characters performance.
