“The Ultimate Thriller,” a touring tribute concert to Michael Jackson, is planned for the Phillips Center on July 12.
The production, which features singer Fabio Morda as Jackson with a 10-piece ensemble including four dancers and two backup singers, is based on Jackson’s ”Bad” and “Dangerous” tours from the late 1980s and early ’90s.
Former Jackson collaborators involved in staging the production include choreographer/principal dancer Lavell Smith, who worked on three tours for the singer; Mic Thompson, a dancer who appeared in the videos for “Dangerous” and “Ghosts”; and Michael Prince, an audio engineer who supervised Jackson’s live performances and television appearances.
Tickets are $20-$45, $10 for UF students, and go on sale noon Friday at the Phillips Center box office (392-3787) and through Ticketmaster at 800-745-3000 and Ticketmaster.com.
