??He has already starred as Michael Jackson across the world and now multi-talented 12-year-old MJ Mytton-Sanneh is back on home turf.

The Wolverhampton schoolboy has performed in the London production of Thriller Live and has even been in versions as far afield as Poland, Germany, Greece and the Czech Republic.

The touring production opened to a packed crowd at the Grand Theatre in Wolverhampton last night for the first of a six-night run.

MJ, of a pupil at Smestow School who lives in Finchfield, beamed today: "Last night was amazing. Everyone got up at the end and clapped.

"I have performed at the Grand before but this was special. My friends and family were in the audience and they said I had done really well."

His mother Heather added: "It's exciting for MJ to perform the role in his home city for the first time."
