Synopsis:
Don't Stop Till You Get Enough this Halloween and Celebrate the Music of the undisputed King of Pop! When the 2011 premiere of "Thriller: Tribute to Michael Jackson" opens on Friday, October 28, 2011, we'll pay tribute to "The King of Pop" in a high-octane show spanning the career of the late Michael Jackson and the Jackson 5. The Jackson-dedicated live experience includes hit tunes such as "Smooth Criminal," "Wanna Be Starting Something," "Billie Jean," "Beat It," and "Thriller," in a show that will pay homage to the extraordinary spectacle of Jackson's legendary performances. The show features Jackson's hits performed by singers and performance artists in a theatrical presentation of Jackson's music videos and live performances modernized by performers of all ages. The King of Pop may have left us, but his memory will be honored with a list of instantly recognizable songs, delivered by multi-talented performers who capture the essence of Michael onstage with synchronized dance routines, Jackson costumes and performance art, and an amazing light show--each delivered with a precision that could only be superseded by the greatest entertainer of all time!

Performed by a professional adult ensemble.
