8Here’s what we think: Review by Headout
It's a Thriller from start to finish at MJ the Musical on Broadway. More than just a jukebox play, this musical delves into Jackson's creative process, celebrity issues, and the inner challenges that molded his work. In MJ, a Pulitzer Prize–winning play by Lynn Nottage and choreography by Christopher Wheeldon spectacle and narrative are combined to pay tribute to a musical legend while recognizing his complexity. Nottage dramatizes the story using cliches from the jukebox playbook, but she does it crisply and in a way that makes it seem almost natural. The big concern, despite this trope, is the glossing over of Michael Jackson's more sordid history.

Valeria Nalani,
The Daily Wildcat"MJ: The Musical’ is a bewitching watch"
Jesse Green,
The New York Times"Wheeldon’s choreography — performed by Frost along with a superb if amazingly jacked ensemble — remains compelling longer, offering a three-dimensional version of what most of us have seen only from distant arena seats or in dark videos on depthless screens"
David Browne,
Rolling Stone"maybe in that way, this equally exhilarating and confounding show really does have it right: Whether you believe the allegations made against him or not, there’s no question that a part of Jackson left the building on those world stages nearly 30 years ago"

Death Becomes Her
Gary Daniel Wadkins
I was curious to see how they were going to adapt the movie, and wondered if the dark humor would be glossed over. It didn't take long to have those concerns addressed and taken away! This is a funny show. The acting is excellent and the songs are very well done. We enjoyed every single minute. Bravo to the cast and crew! A+

Amazing experience! The show is incredible, the atmosphere on stage spilled into the seats. There were a few changes in the cast which took nothing away from the quality.

Aladdin

Its biggest strengths are its colorful sets, inventive choreography, and the unforgettable “magic carpet” moment, which feels genuinely magical in live theater. The show balances humor and heart well, especially through the Genie’s show-stopping numbers and Aladdin’s earnest charm. While the story stays familiar, the added songs and character moments give it fresh life, making it enjoyable for both longtime fans and first-time viewers. Overall, Aladdin is a joyful, crowd-pleasing musical that delivers fun, romance, and theatrical wonder in equal measure. ✨
