Beat It!: The show about the King of Pop!

The approximately two-hour tribute traces Michael Jackson's incomparable solo career in spectacular images and presents 20 of his greatest hits such as “Billie Jean”, “Smooth Criminal”, ‘Thriller’, “Man In The Mirror”, “Black Or White” and of course “Beat It” live.

“Beat It!: The hit show about the King of Pop!” is a spectacular live show experience about the most successful entertainer of all time, whose music will remain unforgotten forever.

“This is one of the best Michael Jackson shows I've ever seen,” enthused Michael's brother Jermaine Jackson immediately after the world premiere on August 29, 2018 at the Theater am Potsdamer Platz in Berlin. After the world premiere, the Berliner Morgenpost ran the headline: “It almost seems as if the King of Pop has risen again”. The result was record-breaking tours in Germany, Austria and Switzerland from 2018 to 2020 with more than 250 performances, most of which were completely sold out, and a wave of boundless enthusiasm among audiences and the press before the tour unfortunately had to end prematurely in March 2020 due to coronavirus. And now, six years later, in spring 2026, the myth is returning to the stage once again in a new version with a new cast.

More than 500 million records sold and over 200 completely sold-out stadiums on his three solo world tours made Michael Jackson the biggest and most successful pop star in music history. He achieved worldwide fame as a child, as a member of the legendary “Jackson 5” - his final breakthrough came with the release of the best-selling album of all time: “Thriller”. Even 16 years after his death, Michael Jackson, the “King of Pop”, lives on in the hearts of his millions of fans for all eternity. And “BEAT IT! - The hit show about the King of Pop!” brings the exceptional artist back to life in a unique stage show. More than 250,000 enthusiastic spectators, completely sold-out concert halls and an accolade from his brother cannot lie: Musical producer Oliver Forster's hit show gave goosebumps night after night, and not just to die-hard Michael Jackson fans. “BEAT IT!” is a perfectly choreographed stage spectacle with outstanding dancers, virtuoso musicians and a leading actor who is so close to the original that the audience is regularly left breathless. The spark is ignited from the very first note. With “BEAT IT!”, no one can stay in their seats. The urge to move is too great as soon as leading man Garth Field slips on his silver glitter glove, adjusts his hat and performs the moonwalk in typical Michael Jackson style.
