Listen Later

Jamaal Fields-Green is starring as Michael Jackson in the West End production of MJ!


Jamaal started out as the MJ and Middle Michael standby on Broadway. He then headed out on the US tour, first as the alternate MJ before taking over the role full-time. During this time Jamaal made a couple of trips to London to play MJ in the West End for some very special emergency performances and in January Jamaal took over the role in London where he continues to dazzle audience to huge acclaim at the Prince Edward Theatre.


Jamaal’s other theatre credits include playing John Laurens/Philip Hamilton in the Chicago production of Hamilton and he was in Choir Boy for the Philadelphia Theatre Company. Jamaal has worked on screen and created his own work in the form of several short films. He recently released an EP under his artist name J Hasan.


In this episode Jamaal discusses his journey with MJ and how he copes with playing such an iconic and incredibly demanding role. He also delves into his other creative projects, aspirations for the future and lots more.


You can see Jamaal performing in MJ at the Prince Edward Theatre. Follow him on Instagram @j_hasan22 and visit his website www.jamaalfieldsgreen.com to stay up-to-date with everything he's up to.
