The Tribute to the King of Pop!
The extraordinary tribute show that celebrates what is probably the greatest genius in pop music: Michael Jackson! On tour with lead guitarist Jennifer Batten and Wendel Gama as Michael. "ONE NIGHT OF MJ" is a two-hour tribute to the extraordinary career of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson (MJ). Wendel Gama as Michael, a brilliant rock band accompanied by horns and strings, a dance crew with original choreography and sophisticated special effects bring MJ's greatest hits back to the stage. Included: the unforgettable guitar solos by Jennifer Batten - the legendary guitarist who accompanied MJ on all his major tours for many years. "Billie Jean", "Beat it", "Bad", "Black or White", "Man in the Mirror", "Smooth Criminal", "Thriller" - it wasn't just his countless number one hits that made MJ the undisputed "King of Pop". His attitude, his exalted music videos and his exuberant live performances were in a class of their own and virtually created an art form in their own right. The interplay of singing, music, dance, state-of-the-art technology and energetic entertainment was probably never more perfectly staged than with him.
"ONE NIGHT OF MJ" once again immerses the audience in the magical atmosphere of MJ's extraordinary shows. The unique arrangements are faithfully brought to life by the live band. A small but majestic live orchestra additionally underlines the grandeur of the unforgettable compositions. Wendel Gama from Brazil is one of the world's most famous Michael Jackson impersonators. Over four million people follow him on TikTok alone. Vocally, hardly anyone comes as close to the original live. But every movement, every gesture and every dance step is a respectful and passionate tribute to the great entertainer Michael Jackson. The legendary guitar riffs and solos could hardly be performed more authentically than with Jennifer Batten as lead guitarist. For almost ten years, she performed for and with Michael Jackson on his major live tours around the world. She first appeared on the "Bad World Tour" in 1987, followed by the "Dangerous World Tour" (1992/93) and the "HIStory World Tour" (1996/97). The last tour alone took them to 35 countries on five continents with 82 concerts. "ONE NIGHT OF MJ" is not just a live musical spectacle, but a fantastic journey through the magical world of MJ - true to the original, full of energy, thrilling. The fast-paced, loud, shrill and at the same time emotional, honest and humble tribute to an unforgotten icon.
