Written by Tayla Giles

Whether you’re a diehard Michael Jackson devotee or a Janet Jackson fangirl, Jackson vs Jackson brings one and all together to pay tribute to the musically talented siblings and their timeless unforgettable hits. 

Held under the big top of The Flamingo in Gluttony, Jackson vs Jackson takes audiences on a one-hour journey through MJ and Janet’s musical evolution across the decades of their lengthy careers in the music industry.

MJ may be the King of Pop, but the vocal powerhouse that is Charmaine Jones takes the crown as Australia’s choral queen – even kicking the performance off by sitting on a stunning white throne and looking as regal as ever.


Amongst her gusty solos, the musically gifted Jones conducts Australia’s leading choral ensemble known as the Gospo Collective; a full instrumental band and a supporting choir, resulting in a packed stage just bursting to the brim with talent. 

Dressed in sequined suits and grinning from ear to ear, the young stars from The Jones Juniors also melted hearts with their adorable singing and choreography skills. 

The show also features a number of passionate solo performances from several members of the Gospo Collective, including the gutsy vocals of the blogging world’s very own Joanna behind @the__style__file on Instagram.

No matter if you’re ‘Black or White’, Jackson vs Jackson is a sure-fire showstopper that is sure to get everyone up on their feet and dancing the night away.



With 26 shows spanning across four weeks of the Adelaide Fringe, Jackson vs Jackson will be rocking The Flamingo in Gluttony from February 20 – March 17.
