WHAT'S ON

Magic of Motown at Baths Hall

Celebrating fifty years of number one hits, the magic of Motown is celebrated in Scunthorpe.

Officially the UK's busiest touring production featuring the music of Motown Records, there are already 49 dates announced for its 2012 tour and more are being added daily, including the Baths Hall on Friday 11th May.

The non-stop spectacular features 36 massive chart-toppers from The Supremes, Temptations, Four Tops, Jackson 5, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Martha Reeves, Lionel Richie and more. An all-star cast, a talented live band that faithfully reproduces Motown’s original Detroit sound, 16 sparkling costume changes and tightly choreographed dance routines saw the show attract glowing reviews in 2011. Show producer Michael Taylor says, “This year is a very special one as far as Motown is concerned. It marks fifty years of number one hits from the world’s favourite record label.

“Sadly, many of the original Motown legends are either no longer with us or longer touring. The Magic of Motown is the nearest you’ll get to authentically capturing their incredible musical legacy in a live show. Our young cast is able to reflect the exuberance and excitement of these songs as they were originally performed.”

The show takes place at the Baths Hall on Friday 11th May at 8pm, and to book tickets, visit the website.
