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 from across the UK in 2011.

Show producer Michael Taylor said: “This year is a very special one as far as Motown is concerned.

“It marks 50 years of number one hits from the world’s favourite record label.

“To mark the occasion, The Magic of Motown is preparing to sign, seal and deliver its biggest production ever in its nine-year history.”

Lead singer Andre Lejaune said the cast has spent the end of 2011 rehearsing an all-new arena show for 2012 to celebrate this golden anniversary.

He said: “With many new numbers added to our already hit-packed show we needed to ensure the choreography was right on point.

“The show is called The Magic of Motown for a reason, it’s our job to ensure theatregoers have a truly magical night to remember.”

To enter our competition to win a pair of tickets, simply answer the question below and fill in the form.

The deadline for entries is January 24, 2012. Terms and conditions and usual rules apply. Editor’s decision is final.
