迈克尔.杰克逊的人生正被打造成一部新的舞台音乐剧—一部以迈克尔.杰克逊的生活为基础的新音乐剧，将于2020年在百老汇上演。

The show, which currently has no title, is being written by Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage.

The Michael Jackson Estate and Columbia Live Stage company announced the news on Tuesday, but didn’t say which theatre the show will play in.

这不是杰克逊的音乐首次出现在舞台剧制作中 -《 Thriller Live》曾于2009年1月在伦敦西区开演。
