Theatre Review - THRILLER LIVE - DARLINGTON HIPPODROME



THRILLER LIVE as the name suggests is a tribute of the music from the legend that was Michael Jackson. There are many shows which feature the music of a period or just one artist, which have been turned into jukebox musicals, but thankfully this is not one of them, this is just a breath taking journey through the life of Michael Jackson.

Choreography and direction by Gary Lloyd is fast paced and high octane. Technically this show doesn't miss a beat from sound, lighting and pyrotechnics, with costumes reflecting the different periods of his music as well as his own inimitable style.

The entire cast are incredibly talented but the stand out performance for me is the incredible Rory Taylor. It is worth going just to see him perform.

The interaction with the audience is just right to create a party atmosphere throughout the show with everyone on their feet during the finale.
