Gary Lloyd paid tribute to the dozens of singers and dancers who have performed in the West End production before over one million customers, and to the backstage staff, technicians, designers and crew who, he said, had all played a vital part in the success of the show, but largely go unseen by the public.
Thriller Live has shattered the previous long-standing record held by Cameron Mackintosh‘s production of 5 Guys Named Moe.
“London theateregoers and visitors to the city have truly embraced Thriller Live,” said Paul Walden. “It is incredibly heartwarming that Thriller Live, now in its fifth year, is playing to some of the most enthusiastic audiences of its West End run, and it is thanks to those audiences that we have been able to smash this record. Recent sales have exceeded our expectations, telling us that the West End does not want to say goodbye to Thriller Live any time soon!” The show is currently booking to 16 March, 2014.
Producers recently enhanced the show by introducing an exciting new opening featuring new video material and graphics. Thriller Live has now thrilled more than 2.3 million people worldwide after playing in 26 countries, including Germany, Japan, Italy, Poland, Denmark, Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, France, Singapore, South Africa, China, Sweden, Finland and Norway.
Thriller Live moonwalked into the West End in January 2009 after three acclaimed UK tours. It is currently also on tour in Brazil.
