Our first night at Conkers in 2008 brings a celebration of the great music of
Tamla Motown - How sweet it is!

Now in its 5th successive year, ‘THE MOTOWN SHOW’ is a slick and high-energy recreation of the 60’s and 70’s Motown era, and celebrates two of its finest vocal groups, The Four Tops and The Temptations, along with many other legendary artists from the great Tamla Motown stable.

This will be an evening crammed full of all your Motown favourites, with a large dosage of the UK Hits of the Four Tops and The Temptations, - ‘Reach Out I’ll Be There’, ‘Walk Away Renee’, ‘Bernadette’, ‘I Cant Help Myself’, ‘The Same Old Song’, ‘Going Loco in Acapulco’, ‘My Girl’, ‘Ain't Too Proud To Beg’, ‘Papa Was A Rollin’ Stone’, and ‘Get Ready’, to name but a few, PLUS, hits from other famous artists of the era such as ‘Smokey Robinson’, ‘Marvin Gaye’, ‘Ben E King’, ‘The Stylistics’, ‘Stevie Wonder’ and ‘Wilson Pickett’. And don’t forget all that fancy footwork, the choreography of this show is something else!

The Motown Show is backed and supported by the superb ‘Peter Brent Orchestra’, a fantastic 8-piece band including a 4-piece horn section. This show is guaranteed to have you dancing in the aisles!!!!

Soul meets funk meets latin meets disco when NU YORK STATE come to town! Led by trumpeter-vocalist Danny Gough, NYS regularly play to packed houses at clubs in Leeds, Manchester, Cambridge and London.
