Ok. This is a bit awkward, but, the tradition of celebrating the art produced by artist of, shall we say, suspect character or ideology – Woody Allen, Roman Polanski, Leni Riefenstahl, D. W. Griffith and so on - well, this tradition comes to Broadway in the form of MJ: The Musical, a new jukebox musical featuring the songs of Michael Jackson.

With a book by socially conscious two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage, it will be interesting to see how this difficult subject is dealt with.

Christopher Wheeldon directs and provides choreography.

Ephraim Sykes set to star as Michael Jackson.

Quentin Earl Darrington, Whitney Bashor, Gabriel Ruiz, Antoine L. Smith, Joey Sorge, Darius Barnes, Raymond Baynard, Coral Dolphin, John Edwards, Ayana George, Kali May Grinder, Apollo Levine, Ryan VanDenBoom, Lamont Walker II, Naomi C. Walley, and Zelig Williams round out the cast.
