Billed as ‘the most accurate and exciting tribute’ ‘ever to have toured UK theatres’, the concert show is now in its eight year and stars long-time Michael Jackson fan, the mononymous Ben.

A musical and somewhat controversial legend, Jackson remains one of the most influential artists of modern times.

With a career spanning nearly five decades, he remained at the forefront of music and, nearly a decade after his death in 2009, continues to inspire countless numbers across the world.

Ben’s portrayal of Jackson depicts the performer at the height of his powers.

Singing all Jackson’s greatest hits while delivering his signature dance routines, Ben recreate the Michael Jackson experience.

He is joined on the stage by a live band and dancers and together they work their way through all the hits, from Thriller to Beat It and Billie Jean, and no doubt Ben.
