On Friday 30 September, Thriller Live opened in the People's Republic Of China in the new 1200 seat Parisian Theatre at the Sands Parisian Macao Hotel in Macao, where it will play for seven weeks.
Thriller Live is unlike other West End musicals. There is no script or story, it is instead a eye-popping spectacular concert celebration of Michael Jackson’s music and dance legacy, bringing to life on stage his amazing high-energy dancing and the pulsating sound of many of pop’s greatest hits, and features specially created video footage and effects and dazzling choreography by the show’s award-winning director, Gary Lloyd.
