Magic of Motown

For some of us it’s nostalgia, for some a passion for retro but without a doubt there is magic in the music of one of America’s most successful exports, Tamla Motown. Some of us will remember it from the first time round, some from the merciless pillaging of it in subsequent soul based musical genres who would sample licks, riffs and lines from Motown’s greatest hits to create the catchy hooks in their new tunes. Whatever you love is based on Motown, it is as captivating now as it was when it hit the charts the firsts time around over 50 years ago.

You can now join the party as this scintillating show celebrates its 10th birthday. The unstoppable Magic of Motown thrills its millionth music fan this year, embarking on a super-sensational nationwide tour that also honours the 50th anniversary of chart-topping single Reach Out I’ll Be There.

Now you can enjoy that sound in a captivating concert show that oozes the style, sophistication and musical brilliance of these megastars as more than 36 classics are revived amid a flurry of glittering costume changes, starring all the dazzling dance moves and superb musicianship of the original artists.
