Last night on Broadway, the smash hit musical MJ celebrated Halloween with a special encore performance of the beloved choreography from Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” short film. While the legendary number is performed in the musical every night, -- as envisioned by Tony Award-winner choreographer and director Christopher Wheeldon, now, in an annual Halloween tradition, audiences got to witness a celebratory rendition of the iconic music video choreography, featuring one-night-only costumes, lighting, and projections.
