London, June 21 (ANI): A plaque in the memory of legendary pop singer Michael Jackson will be erected at the West End theatre in London on his first death anniversary.
The plaque will be unveiled on June 24 in the foyer of the Lyric Theatre, where the show ‘Thriller Live’ is currently playing.
The show features a number of hits from the King of Pop’s solo and Jackson 5 career.
The ceremony for the plaque will be attended by ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ 2009 winners, dance group Diversity, who had been booked to appear at Jackson’s concerts in London.
Thriller Live’s cast will also attend the event and six youngsters who have played Jackson in the production will sing ‘Speechless’- The Tribute before the performance.
“The sentiment behind the song, and what it now means to me in Michael’s passing, truly reflects the emotions one feels due to his loss - those of sadness, but also remembering the joy he gave the world as we celebrate his life,” the BBC quoted the show’s executive director, Adrian Grant, as saying.
