Thriller Live Milton Keynes Theatre 10th – 15th June 2019
On a wet and miserable Monday, nothing could dampen mine and my fellow theatre goers spirits…there was a real buzz on entering MK Theatre, the sounds on Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5 welcomed us all to Thriller Live!
Direct from London's West End and now in its 9th year,
Thriller Live has been seen by over 4 million people in 30 Countries.
Thriller Live is not a musical and it doesn't profess to be
one. Instead, it is a wonderful
celebration of the music by the King of Pop and pays homage Jackson’s legendary
live performances.
Jackson has an amazing and dazzling back catalogue of music
to choose from, this show is two hours long and it's wall to wall hits - all of
the best known songs are in this, including I Want You Back, ABC, Can You Feel
It, Off the Wall, Smooth Criminal, Beat It, Billy Jean, Thriller...the list is
endless.
The show doesn't have a story, it doesn't need one. It has a little narrative that strings the
songs together nicely. It tells the
story of the birth and successes of the Jackson 5 and of course, the legend,
Michael Jackson.
There is an exceptionally talented cast and live band, the
atmosphere inside the Milton Keynes Theatre was electric. The performances were breath taking, with the
choreography by Gary Lloyd being a massive part of Thriller Live - it is
inventive, exhilarating…danced with precision and passion throughout. It was
inevitable that the audience erupted when the iconic "moonwalk" was
performed…absolutely fantastic!
The vocals from the brilliant Britt Quentin, Stunning
Leticia Hector, fabulous Trace Kennedy and Rory Taylor who all sing the leads, they
were powerful and faultless.
If you are a Michael Jackson fan you will love this show, I
guarantee you will be itching to get up and dance and it didn't take the MK
Theatre audience long to do just that!
Don't stop 'til you get enough...Enjoy!
