Smooth Criminal, Billie Jean, Blame It On the Boogie and many more classics will be recreated when Craig Harrison as Michael Jackson moonwalks into Swindon
Jackson Live In Concert is at Swindon’s Wyvern Theatre on Saturday, January 19 at 7.30pm. He has performed his MJ tribute all over the world including Gulliver’s World with Kerry Katona.
“I did a certain amount of PR work for people I had met in Egypt who dealt with celebs. They asked me to do the gig at Gulliver’s World.The first one was with someone from Only Way Is Essex and the second was for a good cause with Kerry Katona,’’ he said.
The singer has performed in Moscow and Bucharest where the show went down a storm. Craig said that they don’t get many tribute bands performing over there. He performed at the Golden Palace theatre tribute gala in Moscow with Lady GaGa, Tom Jones and Robbie Williams tributes. “I bumped into them at the airport and they were obvious as they looked like the stars, but I don’t, so I had to walk up and say I am MJ tribute,’’ said Craig.Craig will never forget the day that MJ died. “I was in Cyprus on holiday when I heard the news. I had tickets to his upcoming O2 shows. I had seen him at Wembley in 1996. I didn’t believe it at first - so sad, so shocked.’’The singer will be strutting his stuff in the Jackson Live concert towhen he comes to Tickets: £29 from 01793 524481 or visitwww.swindontheatres.co.uk
