MJ will feature a book by two-time Pulitzer winner Lynn Nottage and a score made up of Jackson’s song catalogue. Tony winner Christopher Wheeldon will direct and choreograph. Who both have publicly insinuate they believed Robson and Safechuck’s stories.
The Estate has also sent an email to fans regarding the ticket sales planning. Advanced tickets will go on sale on January 14 for the people who have registered to the website before general ticket sales on January 15. But a special pre-sale on the evening of January 13 will take place just for the fans (what a threat! really!) through a special link which will be shared by the Estate.
