Michael Jackson - The Musical

[Head Gardener]

coming in January 2020 in LA - Johnny Depp is producing Michael Jackson the musical as told by his glove

[Cuellar]

Is this separate to and distinct from the Reeves and Mortimer thing?

[Head Gardener]

no, this is totally "a fresh, revisionist look at the strange forces that shaped Jackson and the scandals that bedevilled him"

Obligatory posting of 'Man In The Mirror' clip:

It's worth noting that this is approved by Michael Jackson's estate, which means it'll be as whitewashed as the man himself.  Ignore the paedophilia.  Look at the glove.  Coo.  Ain't it shiny and conveniently distracting?  Stare into the hypnotic glares of the sequinned glove.  Ooohhhh, aaahhhh.

Still, dude knew how to sing a tune, I suppose.  Annie, are you okay?  So, Annie, are you okay?  Are you okay, Annie?  If a dozen kids got fiddled in the name of coming up with lyrics like that, then damn it, it was worth it!

If you really want a "fresh, revisionist look at the strange forces that shaped Jackson and the scandals that bedevilled him", you'd do much better by reading "The Resistible Demise of Michael Jackson" from Zero Books.

Shouldn't this be in the 'Gloves That Look Like David Cameron' thread?
