Motown shattered barriers, shaped our lives and made us all move to the same beat. Now, experience the next electrifying chapter in the Motown story both on Broadway and across the country.

The critically acclaimed first national tour of Motown the Musical is now playing San Francisco's Orpheum Theater through September 28 before continuing across the country.
