Michael Jackson's legacy lives on on stage

Michael Jackson remains unforgotten even 16 years after his death. He has gone down in history as the legendary King of Pop and probably the most successful entertainer of all time. His life, his music, his live performances on stage and, of course, his tragic death have been and continue to be the inspiration for musicals, films and shows that inspire fans all over the world and enable them to come to terms with the loss of their idol.

"BEAT IT! - The hit show about the King of Pop!" tours Germany, Austria and Switzerland at the beginning of next year. Talented dancers and musicians as well as the leading actor Garth Field will pay tribute to Michael Jackson with a spectacular show. 20 of his most famous songs, including "Billie Jean", "Smooth Criminal", "Thriller", "Man In The Mirror", "Black Or White" and of course "Beat It" will be performed live.

"Garth has the rare combination of singing ability, dancing talent, the perfect look and above all the drive and ambition to do this role justice and always work to be the best in the business, just like his idol once was. I am therefore very proud that we were able to cast him in the lead role of Michael for the new edition of "BEAT IT!"," says Oliver Forster, producer of the show.
