NEW YORK (AP) – Some of the people who managed Michael Jackson’s career are teaming up for a musical about the late pop icon. The producers – Mark Lamica, Quincy Krashna, Jerry Greenberg and Larry Hart – call “The Man” a cross between “Dreamgirls and Goodfellas.” The Man is a fictional show that is inspired by the rise to fame of Jackson as well as Whitney Houston and Elvis Presley. The show is expected to open in Las Vegas in late fall of next year.
