AWESOME, INSPIRING FUN!
My husband and I saw Motown and loved it. The music and tribute acts were excellent, and the mood in the theatre was so festive as you could tell everyone in the theatre was enjoying the show as much as we were. A great night out!

WHAT A SHOW
New Year’s Eve 2.30pm show. Three of us went , 60, 56 & 45. A brilliant show, energy and talent on stage was phenomenal, Gordy was great , Diana Ross was sensational. All of the actors and singers were Spot on , Smokey, Marvin, Stevie, Michael J, supremes and more , Didn’t want it to end, would go again and again and again.

DISAPPOINTED
Overacted, singing mostly out of tune, couldn’t understand what they were saying, storyline poor,, glad we got our tickets in the Boxing Day sale, because I wouldn’t have wanted to pay full price to see it, some of the well known songs they didn’t sing all the way through, not for us.

NOT THAT AMAZING
A Christmas gift, I wouldn't have gone to see it otherwise. The sound wasn't good, couldn't always hear what they were saying. One man seemed to think he was God's gift and was more worried about that than performing well like the others. Disappointed that there were no female singers.

EXPECTED BETTER
Didn’t live up to expectations for me, sound system poor, couldn’t understand a lot of the talking, song choices could have been better, a lot of the songs they didn’t sing all the way through, didn’t know some of the songs, lead member, was good, Michael Jackson good, Diana Ross average, a lot better musicals out there better than this one.
