Norderelbstraße 8, 20457 Hamburg
The Hamburg premiere of MJ – The Michael Jackson Musical will be one of the absolute highlights of the musical year 2024 in Germany. Fans no longer have to wait. A record number of people took advantage of the pre-registration opportunity. The original Broadway production about Michael Jackson's unique artistic talent and his incomparable charisma has won four Tony Awards® and has already sold over 1 million tickets.
Surrounding the backstory of the 1992 "Dangerous" world tour, MJ – The Michael Jackson Musical presents some of the most popular and best-selling songs in music history and goes far beyond the unique moves and unmistakable sound of the star – offering rare insights into the team spirit and creative power that made Michael Jackson a legend.
Extensive Casting Process
The castings for this extraordinary musical production have already begun. Stage Entertainment Germany's casting director Ralf Schaedler explains: "It is a significant challenge for our team to find a performer who can match the brilliance of Michael Jackson: an artist who walks, moves, sings, and possesses the artistic aura of Michael Jackson – but is not an imitator. Additionally, the musical showcases Michael Jackson's work over several decades. Therefore, we are looking for boys around 10 years old, teenagers in their late teens to early 20s, as well as performers for the adult Michael Jackson."
Jana Nagy, Artistic Director for child performers at the Stage Theater on the Elbe, adds: "We are looking for boys who enjoy performing. The most important requirement is a love for singing and dancing. Theater experience is not necessary. We look forward to many applications from young talents who want to step into the role of a global superstar and perform in front of a large audience."
Award-Winning Creative Team
A prestigious international creative team has developed MJ – The Michael Jackson Musical: The book is written by two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage ("Ruined," "Sweat"). Direction and choreography are by Christopher Wheeldon OBE, Associate Artist of the London Royal Ballet, who won the Tony Award® for Best Choreography for MJ and is known for his earlier award-winning work "An American in Paris." The set design is by Tony Award® and two-time Emmy Award® winner Derek McLane ("Moulin Rouge! The Musical”), lighting design by celebrated six-time Tony Award® winner Natasha Katz ("An American in Paris"), costume design by Tony Award® and Emmy Award® winner Paul Tazewell ("Hamilton"), sound design by Tony Award® and Olivier Award winner Gareth Owen ("Come From Away"), projection design by Peter Nigrini, who was twice nominated for the Tony Award® ("Dear Evan Hansen"), and hair & wigs by two-time Emmy Award nominee Charles LaPointe ("The Color Purple"). The musical supervision is by Tony Award® nominee David Holcenberg ("Matilda"), who, along with Tony Award® winner Jason Michael Webb ("The Color Purple"), is also responsible for the orchestrations and arrangements.
