Review: MJ - DAS MUSICAL at Stage Theater An Der Elbe
by Konstantin Georgiou - May 18, 2026


MJ – Das Michael Jackson Musical in Hamburg fühlte sich für mich fast wie die perfekte Fortsetzung des großartigen Films „Michael“ an: Während der Film etwa 1988 endet, setzt das Musical mitten in der Dangerous-Ära der frühen 90er an und verbindet Musik, Emotionen und Flashbacks auf erstaunlich cineastische Weise. Benét Monteiro und Jay Karim-Jonker waren als MJ fantastisch, Bühne, Licht und Choreografie absolute Stage-Entertainment-Topklasse, und besonders „Thriller“, „Human Nature“ und „Man in the Mirror“ sorgten für echte Gänsehautmomente. Am schönsten war aber vielleicht das Publikum selbst – von Menschen, die mit Michael Jackson groß geworden sind, bis hin zu Kindern unter 10 Jahren in kompletter MJ-Montur. Genau da merkt man, wie zeitlos seine Musik bis heute geblieben ist.

Much like All My Sons, the virtuosic Arthur Miller tragedy revived in the West End earlier this year, Miller’s lesser-known 1967 play The Price holds a mirror up to the American Dream and finds people varying degrees of broken by their desire to succeed. “I want money,” declares a character early on. “Congratulations,” another drily replies.
