"We've been deeply touched by fans around the world, and now we are living our dream of bringing it home to the States."
The week leading up June 25th, cast members of The Ultimate Thriller are available in NYC for nationally syndicated talk show performances, radio and press interviews. New York shows are scheduled for June 27 at Stanley Theatre and June 29 at Apollo Theatre. The tour then moves on to major cities across the country including Washington DC, Nashville, Memphis, Dallas, Albuquerque, Las Vegas and more.

"Keeping Michael's spirit alive is our first priority," says Robert Hyman, The Ultimate Thriller show producer and drummer. "We've been deeply touched by fans around the world, and now we are living our dream of bringing it home to the States."

Described in the press as "brilliant", "thoroughly entertaining", "amazing" and "surpassed expectations," The Ultimate Thriller is over two hours of the best of Michael Jackson's "Dangerous" and "Bad" concert tours. The tribute features a live band fronted by award-winning impersonator Tej'ai Sullivan, and troupe of dancers choreographed by Mic Thompson, who spent nine years on stage with Jackson.

"The concert gave Jackson fans the closest experience they could hope for since the King of Pop's untimely death last year. Everything about its content was meticulously planned and it was obvious within the first five minutes just how much work went into organizing a stage show of such magnitude." Charlie Holding, Gulf Weekly, Bahrain.

Fans are invited to view tour dates on www.theultimatethriller.com and "Demand It" to come to their town.
