BEAT IT! – The Success Show about the King of Pop!
What's it about?
"BEAT IT! – The Success Show about the King of Pop!" is a spectacular live show experience about the most successful entertainer of all time, whose music will remain unforgettable forever. The approximately two-hour homage traces Michael Jackson's unparalleled solo career in spectacular images and features live performances of 20 of his biggest hits such as "Billie Jean," "Smooth Criminal," "Thriller," "Man In The Mirror," "Black Or White," and of course "Beat It." "This is one of the best Michael Jackson shows I have ever seen," raved Michael's brother Jermaine Jackson immediately after the world premiere on August 29, 2018, at the Theater am Potsdamer Platz in Berlin. The Berliner Morgenpost headlined after the world premiere: "It almost seems as if the King of Pop has risen again." This led to record tours from 2018 to 2020 in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland with more than 250 performances, most of which were sold out, and a wave of boundless enthusiasm from audiences and the press, before the tour was unfortunately cut short in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, six years later, in spring 2026, the myth returns to the stage in a new version with a new cast. More than 500 million records sold and over 200 sold-out stadiums on his three world tours made Michael Jackson the biggest and most successful pop star in music history. As a member of the legendary "Jackson 5," he gained worldwide fame at a young age – his breakthrough came with the release of the best-selling album of all time: "Thriller." Even 16 years after his death, Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop," continues to live on in the hearts of his millions of fans forever. And "BEAT IT! – The Success Show about the King of Pop!" brings the extraordinary artist back to life in a unique stage show. More than 250,000 enthusiastic spectators, countless sold-out concert halls, and a brotherly endorsement cannot be wrong: the success show by musical producer Oliver Forster has caused goosebumps night after night, not only among die-hard Michael Jackson fans. "BEAT IT!" is a perfectly choreographed stage spectacle with excellent dancers, virtuoso musicians, and a lead performer who is so close to the original that visitors are regularly left breathless. From the first note, the spark ignites. At "BEAT IT!" no one stays in their seat. The urge to move is too great once lead actor Garth Field puts on his silver glitter glove, adjusts his hat, and performs the Moonwalk in typical Michael Jackson style. It almost seems as if the 2009 deceased "King of Pop" has risen again and returned to the stage for one night. Lead actor Garth Field: A life for art. The South African was born in Cape Town in 1993. His artistic career began modestly as a member of the elementary school choir. But in his teenage years, his commitment increased, and he learned many facets of performing arts during his training. He attended the Stage Performing Arts School and Theatre, where he received a certificate in Performing Arts in his second year and studied jazz, step, and modern dance.

In 2008, he expanded his repertoire and studied hip-hop styles with Kumari Singh at the Temple of Hip Hop. In 2012, he earned an NQF Level 5 in Performing Arts at the New Africa Theatre.
