Thriller Live has extended its run at the West End’s Lyric Theatre to April 2020, a new 27-week booking period for the show!

The hit concert musical, which celebrates all of the greatest hits from a career spanning the Jackson 5 to Thriller, was previously booking until September 2019.

Jackie, Marlon and Tito Jackson responded to the news of the West End extension: “We loved the show when we saw it, and fans in the audience were ‘thrilled’ with the performances. It’s great they’ve extended their run so more fans can have an opportunity to dance to Michael’s music, the Jackson Five music, and to have a great night out.”

The show has extended its run at the Lyric Theatre over 20 times since it first arrived, having been originally scheduled to play from January to May 2009. Later this month, it’s due to become the 13th longest-running West End musical in history. A second production continues to tour the world with dates forthcoming in Kuwait, Dubai and Germany.

The show, which features spectacular high-energy dancing and the pulsating sound of many of pop’s greatest hits, changes each year as new numbers are added, keeping fans of Thriller Live coming back for more and more.
