REVIEW – Motown the Musical – Broadway San Jose

Posted on June 23, 2016 by Artsalot

I’m not going to lie, going into Broadway San Jose’s Motown the Musical I thought there was a good chance I might be about 20 years too young to fully appreciate it. You’d think I’d be trusting enough by now, … Continue reading →
