Motown: The Musical

See it if I knew what it was going in, yet I expected better. Great music of course, but the plot was so thin, the chemistry so lacking - a big meh.

Don't see it if You want a story with substance or a dynamic production; this felt tired & shopworn.

See it if you're a fan of 1983's tv special "Motown: Yesterday Today Forever". It's the LIVE jukebox musical of that night, w/a ton of B Gordy drama.

Don't see it if you don't want to sit thru B Gordy over-indulgent self-aggrandizing background fluff. How much of it is true or not doesn't add to the show.

Also I loved the music in this show, but the story was a bit indulgent and a bit of a pity party for Berry Gordy. But still entertaining to any fan of the Motown songbook.... Read more Read less
