Michael Jackson musical heading to Broadway

Washington: A new musical based on the life of legendary singer Michael Jackson is coming to Broadway in 2020.

The Michael Jackson Estate and Columbia Live Stage made the announcement on Tuesday that the show will feature the biggest hits from Jackson’s catalogue.

The story of the as-yet-untitled show will be written by two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage and directed and choreographed by Tony-winning choreographer Christopher Wheeldon, reports E! Online.

The King of Pop died in 2009 at age 50 from an overdose of the anesthetic propofol and sedatives.
