DANCING IN THE STREETS

March 12, 2016 @ 8:00 pm

$62.50 – $69.50

Dancing in the Streets, direct from London’s West End, is a non-stop celebration of Motown’s greatest songs, performed by an electrifying cast of singers, dancers and an onstage band. This stunning production features chart-busting hits made famous by The Four Tops, The Temptations Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, Diana Ross & the Supremes, Stevie wonder, Marvin Gaye, Martha & the Vandellas, Lionel Richie and Gladys Knight.
Featuring nearly 40 of the great songs of all time, Dancing in the Streets “can genuinely be classed as all killer, no filler,” raves The Guardian. Experience the energy of the Motor City by grooving to all the classics, including “My Girl,” “Baby Love,” “Uptight (Everything’s Alright),” Reach Out I’ll Be There,” “I Heard It Through the Grapevine” “Dancing in the Streets,” “Stop! In the Name of Love” and “The Tears of a Clown.” The Dancing in the Streets company brings these melodic, foot-tapping songs to life with a touch of soul and style guaranteed to have you singing along and dancing in the aisles.
“In this show you are never more than a couple of minutes away from a chart-topping pop classic.” The Stage.
“The high points though are glorious, from the Temps’I Can’t Get Next to You – one of the funkiest numbers in the entire Hitsville catalogue – to the Four Tops’ anthemic Reach Out (I’ll Be There). Stevie Wonder, reincarnated as a teen prodigy, adds a scorching Uptight, while the onstage band does a fine impersonation of the legendary, multiracial house-band, the Funk Brothers. Any devotees of R&B who don’t enjoy the show should check their pulse immediately.” The Times
“They sing their hits, nearly 40 of them which can genuinely be classed as all killer, no filler.” The Guardian
“I’m glad to say that in creating this revival of Motown music, the producers avoided the lure of devising a pseudo storyline to act as a vehicle for the show – the focus, thankfully, is entirely on the artists and their songs – presented very much as they might have been in stage shows of the 60s and 70s.” London Theatre Guide
“This was essentially one of, if not the best show…….ever!!!” Capital Radio
