CELEBRATING 50 years of UK number one hit singles, the Magic of Motown brings its brand-new tour to Ilkley next month.

Songs like Dancing in the Street, My Girl, Where Did Our Love Go, My Guy and Baby Love rocketed Motown to the top of the singles charts in 1964, says Michael Taylor, show producer of The Magic of Motown 2014 Reach Out Tour.

“Incredibly, 100 more Motown number 1s followed worldwide,” he says.

“The Magic of Motown 2014 Reach Out Tour brings to the stage 36 of these chart toppers back-to-back in one critically-acclaimed production.”

Direct from the USA, The Magic of Motown promises five-star performances that will authentically revive the style and sophistication of everyone’s favourite Motown legends.

“This year we’re proud to announce that the show will include more number one hits than ever before,” said Mr Taylor.

He added: “As well as dazzling dance moves and glittering costumes galore,” says Michael. “the elusive, authentic sound of Motown is recreated by our incredible Magic of Motown band.”

The group, especially put together for the show, celebrate their tenth year together on this tour.

Classic hits from the Temptations, Four Tops, Jackson 5, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Lionel Richie and The Supremes are packed into the two-hour spectacular.
