A hit theatre production starring Ben Bowman as the ultimate Michael Jackson tribute artist, featuring live band, dazzling costumes and iconic choreography.
Michael Starring Ben comes to Portsmouth Guildhall on Wednesday 1 July, a live theatre show about the King of Pop starring Ben Bowman, who's described as the UK's most famous Michael Jackson tribute act. He doesn't just look and sound the part; he's spent years refining his routine to the point where audiences feel like they're seeing Michael Jackson in the flesh. The show is built around a live band, dazzling costumes and those iconic dance moves that made him a household name.

The setlist pulls from the biggest hits of Michael Jackson's solo career and his time with The Jackson 5, with Beat It, Billie Jean, Thriller and Man in the Mirror among the songs he'll be performing. It's a tribute show, not an official production, and isn't associated with or endorsed by the Michael Jackson estate.
It's open to all ages, though the organisers suggest using your own judgement with the youngest ones because of the loud music and flashing lights. The dress code is smart casual, so you can keep it relaxed. If you're fancying a bit extra, there are hospitality and charcuterie board packages you can add to your booking up until 24 hours before the show.
Doors open at 19:00 at Portsmouth Guildhall in Guildhall Square, and tickets run from £25.60 to £37.30.
