"Beware!!!"
TripAdvisor user rating 1.0 out of 5

I purchased tickets and 4 hours later the show was cancelled but they refused to refund my money! That is no way to treat customers. Instead of giving me a refund they gave me a gift certificate for 2 tickets but my schedule was booked and I was leaving brown in 2 days so the tickets are pretty useless unless I return here for vacation sometime in the future. So beware! If you purchase any tickets for a production at the Reza Live Theatre (they hold 3 different shows at that venue) be sure to use a credit card so you can dispute the charge should the show get cancelled. Oh and the show that was cancelled showed up on the show calendar as “sold out” which is very deceptive.

What a fun experience. Songs from all time periods. Costume changes, and the dancing was just unreal. Kudos to this guy. He has obviously been professionally trained for YEARS to be able to pull this off. Highly recommend if you love the King of Pop.

"Crazy odd"
TripAdvisor user rating 3.0 out of 5

This was crazy. You had one - way to happy skinny employee telling people to sit wherever you want to. Most of us sat in our assigned seats like we picked out and were told to by others. He really messed up a lot of seats then laughed about it and said ..wow glad I didnt help those people. Pretty bad and unprofessional. The dancers were extremely Great in their percussion! They could be in Vegas. The MJ person not so much. I’m hoping he was just having a bad day. A few songs were really flat while singing and after the mid break he sounded terrible ! He must of eaten something not good for the throat . His wife has a beautiful voice. The place was pretty much on the empty side and I can see why. Tickets were kind of high priced for this act. I Would say if you’ve never been out traveling or to Vegas and seen any other shows in your life than this will be great for you, enjoy.

"Great Show, Learn the Lyrics, Please"

Great high energy show with live band. Michael Knight does a very nice rendition of Michael Jackson. Voice, dancing and moves are on point. There are several songs where the lyrics are obviously off. I don't know if that is intentional or not. That is one of my biggest disappointments of the show. Get the lyrics right. 2nd is selfish, he didn't do P.Y.T. Outside of those 2 things I had a very entertaining time at a great venue.

"MJ-The Illusion...Gotta see this one!"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed August 30, 2025
From vocals to dancing & music it was a fantastic show! It was the closest most of us will ever know of experiencing a MJ concert. Michael Knight does an incredible job on all the dance moves (which were outta this world) & nails the vocals. At one point he made his rounds thru the audience shaking hands which showed the appreciation he has for his audience. There was a bit of a scare when he unexpectedly blacked out & fell from the stage (NOT part of the show-1st time it had ever happened-God bless him). Thankfully he didnt appear hurt too badly but in true professionalism, he continued the show. His entire crew did a GREAT job...don't hesitate to see this wonderful show!
