| | What's New | Dancing in the Streets is a celebration of classic music of Motown, from the heart of the Motor City - Detroit. |
| Theatre Review | As a celebration of the Motown era, Dancing in the Streets has enough verve and unabashed high spirits to win over all but the most curmudgeonly audiences. As hit follows hit, you begin to realise that the production, skimpy though it is in some respects, fills an important gap. It's always possible to read about the atmosphere of the Tamla machine's live shows, but actual concert footage seems to be in short supply. How many times, for instance, have you actually had a chance to relish the extravagant choreography of the Temptations — seen here in their mildly geeky, pre-psychedelic threads — or the demure hand gestures of the Supremes? Taken on those terms, the performances of the dozen or so young singers becomes an inspirational history lesson, as well as a reminder of how modern soul music has been fatally drained of, well, soul. The Times
In search of an angle, they've linked the show to the 40th anniversary of the label's first UK tour. That's the plot in a nutshell: it's 1965, and we're watching the young Stevie Wonder, Supremes, Smokey Robinson and many other soon-to-be-household names (all played by unknown British singers) strut their considerable stuff for the first time on a London stage... They sing their hits, nearly 40 of them, which can genuinely be classed as all killer, no filler.
