Washington: An upcoming musical based on the life and career of late pop icon Michael Jackson has gotten a new title.
Originally called ‘Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough’, will now be known as ‘MJ’, reported Variety.
The upcoming project is currently in a multi-week development phase in New York City and is scheduled to hit Broadway in the summer next year. “We can confirm that the Michael Jackson musical has a new title,” Rick Miramontez, a spokesman for the show, said.
“As the show has evolved through its development process, the production felt that ‘MJ’ was a better and stronger choice than relying on the title of anyone individual song,” Miramontez added.
However, the recent project has been overshadowed by multiple allegations of child sexual abuse that have been levelled over the years against the late pop icon.
The controversy was reignited by a recent HBO documentary titled ‘Leaving Neverland’, which features lengthy interviews with two Jackson accusers, Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who claim that the singer abused them when they were young. Jackson passed away in 2009 at the age of 50 and the late singer’s family has denied all of the abuse allegations.
