Step into the world of Motown and experience the magic behind the music that defined an era. The Story Behind Motown, founded by the legendary Mr Berry Gordy Jr., takes you on an unforgettable journey back to Detroit City, famously known as Hitsville USA.
Featuring original footage shown on the big screen and classic hits performed by the incredibly talented singers Anita and Courtney, this show is a tribute to the golden years of Motown. With stunning harmonies, iconic dress changes, and two high-energy dancers, you’ll be up on your feet singing and dancing along to the timeless hits of The Four Tops, Jackie Wilson, Diana Ross and The Supremes, Sam Cooke, and many more.
This captivating production also includes soulful touches from artists like The Drifters, Marvin Gaye, and even a little Northern Soul for good measure.
So, grab your dancing shoes and singing voices as we take you back through the Motown years once again. This is a show you won’t want to miss!
Here’s what audiences are saying:
"We enjoyed every minute. It was brilliant! Well done to all of you!"
"What a great show, well done to all involved!"
"Absolutely amazing, and the dresses were gorgeous."
"Brilliant show! Now I know more about Motown. Didn’t want it to end."
