MOTOWN Reopens Tonight

I did. It was okay. I liked it better the first time around. Tonight they had quite a few missed mic pick ups. Sometimes the soloists/featured singers never got their mics turned on.



I do have a question that someone else might be able to answer. I heard that they cut down on time. Does anyone know where? I think they may have cut a line or a scene in the first act, as well as since the automation is not as big, some of the transitions are tighter. Its been two years since I saw it last, so I don't remember some details of the first time.

Is there automation at all?

Sounds like it should be a better show to see in very late previews or after opening, especially since the prices are very similar, if not the same.

Prices are almost always the same....and are they officially having a preview period since this is just a tour stop? Not like they are making changes to a show that's been touring for more than a year.


If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

No previews, as per playbillvault, it 'opened' on the night they started performances - July 12

When i saw the tour there was automation. Set pieces track on and off stage. Nothing major, though.
