Andreana Clemenz: Script, direction & artistic direction
"BEAT IT - the show about the King of Pop!" is a spectacular live show experience about superstar Michael Jackson and delighted over 180,000 viewers.
Background:
"Beat It!" had its celebrated world premiere in 2018 at the Theater am Potsdamer Platz in Berlin. Written and directed by Andreana Clemenz and her team, the stage spectacular about the "King of Pop" thrilled over 180,000 spectators and toured until 2020 in over 100 shows in the German-speaking region.
A spectacular display of dance and singing performances at the highest level, accompanied by a perfectly coordinated instrumental live performance, taking the audience on an emotional and musical journey. Underscored by the unforgettable music of Michael Jackson and the two great Michael Jackson performers Dantanio Goodman from South Africa and Koffi Misha from Berlin, it is almost impossible not to start dancing in the seats.
During the last chord of the fantastic live band performance, an entire audience is on its feet, singing, dancing and clapping. A show that reverberates energy with the public long after leaving the theater.

"Director Andreana Clemenz and choreographer Alex Burgos pull out many stops to score with new effects on every song. The mirror metaphor runs through the whole spectacle."
