Just checked the bookings for March and a lot of shows are already sold out! And the rest is on limited availability. I'm glad the show is doing well in London too. The UK has always had a lot of love for Michael (the public, not the media).

www.londontheatredirect.com/best-sellersMJ The Musical is listed among the best sellers, outselling Hamilton. It has an average rating of 4.9 so far based on 9 reviews. I hope it will do as well here as it did on Broadway. MJ can't be stopped Btw I never go to the theatre and I'm shocked at some of these prices. Some tickets go for £273 and they're not even front row. I had no idea it was that expensive.

Went to see the musical to London last night with a bunch of orher MJ fans. It was really great. Everyone is talking about Myles, but the other two MJs (kid MJ and age 16-24 MJ - I was surprised by the latter because I didn't know there are two adult MJs in the piece) were really great as well. Especially the second part is very good. Thriller is probably the highlight, not just because the stage is really spectacular, but because the whole metaphorical meaning taken into it. A lot of the piece is centered around MJ fighting his demon, ie. Joseph and in Thriller it's reinforced with Joseph morphing into a monster haunting MJ. It was interesting that the family was not spared in it at all. They were portrayed as leeching MJ off for money during the Victory tour, which is what happened, but it's interesting they went there.
Myles speaking voice is in the piece is more MJ (I think he's doing it really well, not caricature-like) than his singing voice, but he is a very talented singer and dancer. The theater was sold out and there were two standing ovations. One after Thriller and then at the end. I think most people came away really pleased, the atmosphere was great. Everyone but one person from my gang of around 20 people was impressed (the one person who wasn't doesn’t speak English so she had a hard time following the plot and she complained that Myles didn’t sound exactly like MJ, which I guess is just her coming with unrealistic expectations). Overall it was a great, fun night. I recommend it if you can go.

These are the two adult MJs in the show. The other guy next to Myles Frost plays MJ age 16-24. I thought he was very good as well.

He's called Mitchell Zhangazha and his brother Ashley Zhangazha played Joseph who was also very good. Mitchell played young MJ in Thriller Live. http://instagram.com/p/C2IIYQyIVkg
