I like the idea of it, but honestly from the end of the block I couldn't understand what it was saying.

Posted: 1/19/13 at 1:52pmI actually think it's pretty gorgeous. They used their space quite well. I can see the problem though with the banners/letters.

True. I think the Lunt always has a pretty classy marquee.
However, that Marquis marquee right across from it is awful.

Posted: 1/20/13 at 1:04pmCan someone tell me, is this a revue or is it a book musical with scenes, songs and characters? I understand there are characters (Diana Ross etc) but I was wondering was it just people singing different Motown songs?

Posted: 1/20/13 at 1:24pmIt's Berry Gordy's story. So yes, it is a book musical
