Tribute concert in which Garth Field plays Michael Jackson, recreating his signature hits, dance routines and stage persona.
The Michael Jackson HIStory Show comes to the Byham Theater on Thursday, October 22, 2026, at 7:30 PM. It's a tribute production that recreates Michael Jackson's signature hits, dance routines, and stage persona, with Garth Field taking the lead as Jackson. The show is presented in Pittsburgh by the Dentons Cohen & Grigsby Trust.
What sets this apart from a standard cover set is the focus on the performance as a whole. It's not just about the songs; the production is built around the choreography and vocal delivery, aiming to bring back the specific way Jackson moved and sang on stage. The set draws from his most recognizable hits, and the choreography is a central part of the experience rather than something that happens in the background.
On stage, Garth Field handles the role of Michael Jackson, taking on both the vocals and the dance routines. The show is described as a high-energy homage to Jackson's artistry, with the choreography and the vocal delivery given as much weight as the music itself. It's a full-stage production rather than a small ensemble, with the choreography and stage effects working together to recreate the feel of his live shows.
