Countdown to Jackson tribute show in Athboy

The Michael Jackson Tribute Show is on stage in Athboy on Thursday 14th, Friday 15th, Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th January. 'Ben - A Tribute to Michael Jackson' is an explosive act paying tribute to the greatest performer of all time, the King of Pop. Combined with a spectacular dance performance, including all the signature moves, Ben is the closest you can come to experiencing a live Michael Jackson show. He sings every single song entirely live. That even includes songs that Michael Jackson himself has never performed live, including 'Scream', 'Remember the Time' and many more. Ben from Kent, England, has been an avid Michael Jackson fan since the age of eight when he witnessed the 'Dangerous' tour at Wembley. Ben performed countless times over the years and worked tirelessly to improve on his unique talent. The last twelve months have seen massive investment and technical improvement to ensure Ben secures his place as one of the world's top singing Michael Jackson tributes. Classics such as 'Billie Jean', 'Beat It', 'Bad', 'Thriller', 'Wanna Be Startin' Something' and 'Smooth Criminal' sit side-by-side with '90s chartbusters like 'Black or White', 'Heal the World', 'Scream' and 'You Are Not Alone' as well as the cream of the newer songs including 'You Rock My World' and 'One More Chance'. Based on performances from the infamous Michael Jackson world tours, Ben is sure to enchant and delight anybody touched by the man's music over the last four decades. With his team of dancers and amazing stage show this is one show not to be missed. Thursday 14th and Sunday 17th are both fully seated shows, while Friday 15th and Saturday 16th are standing shows.
