To be honest, alone MJ's music has this power. So if you have MJ's music for a show it's already a half win. From then on you can only mess it up, but if you let the music speak for itself it should work magic on people.

right now i really have to think about it. at the sametime it does give the estate money but at the sametime it leaves an bad taste in my mouth because knowing who doing the musical.
i hoping people will be able to show some clips if they can.

From then on you can only mess it up, but if you let the music speak for itself it should work magic on people. Yeah. MJs name and music has enough power to draw audiences for it to do really well, especially early on. It really is no wonder the previews have sold so many tickets (I imagine most people watching it this early are probably MJ fans?). The real trick will be seeing how long itβll sustain once the show opens to the general public. Though if ONE is anything to go off, it should be in safe hands. Iβd go if it came to my country, which will be what, 15 years away? Lol. Hopefully with this Broadway musical coming out, they can shift focus to projects us non-American fans can enjoy too.

I'm hearing mix reviews about this.
i just heard that they gonna talk about michael being abuse and his drug addiction this already an red flag if this true.
keep in mind that these are only the previews so the real show won't start until february 1st.

there's no history or bad era but there are songs from those eras. it's going to J5 and thriller and the show takes place during the dangerous tour.
kind of sucks because bad is one of my favorite eras.

Here are a bit more details in this thread. It seems out of the "heavy" subjects they chose to focus on the relationship with his father, which I think is a good choice because it was the basis of so many things in MJ's life.

You can read a longer review in this topic. This is a discussion more by general Broadway/musical fans rather than MJ fans. There's some hostility on the first page coming from a place of some believing the allegations and some hating "juke box musicals". (Funny, I'm the other way around. I don't really like classic musical type music. So I'd much rather see a "jukebox musical" with good pop music than a classical musical type of show.) Also discussion of how Covid might affect the show's prospects and success. The review on page 2 overall is positive though (from the only person in the thread who actually saw it), although it has some slight criticism. But it gives a good idea of what the concept of the show is like. www.broadwayworld.com/board/readmessage.php?thread=1127020&page=2
