Motown vs. Hitzville

I had the chance to see the show at the Venetian called Motown. It is done by 4 white guys and a full band with horn section. It is a very good show and it was well attended. I would say it was about 95% full on a Thursday night. The show was very good and very polished. They played all the top hits and it is easy to see that these guys have put a lot of work into this production. We got our tickets on Goldstar and paid $ 60.00 (incl. all the taxes and fees). In my opinion, there is not a bad seat in the house and I don't think paying the extra money to be in the VIP section is worth it.

In comparison, I have also seen "Hitzville" which is a very similar show. Like their competitor, Hitzville also plays many of the same songs but changes or should I say, impersonates, the likes of the 4 Tops and etc. Hitzville also has a smaller, more streamlined band. The cost of this show through Tix4tonight and other re-sllers can be as low as $35.00 per ticket. Much like "Motown", there are not any real bad seats in the V Theater, but there are definitely some less desirable seats.


Overall, Motown is a much slicker production with a bigger budget shown in a much nicer theater. That being said, I still think that Hitzville provide more bang for the buck.

If you like Motown music, you can't go wrong with any of these shows.

Thanks for the review.Being from Detroit, I do enjoy Motown music.
Good information...thanks. I think we'd enjoy both shows.

Was that $60 per person or $60 for the two of you to the Motown show?
It was $60.00 per person (incl. taxes/fees).

A number of the shows at Planet Hollywood use the same performers and they kind of run show to show there. A couple of the acts there even moved on to Absinthe at another Harrahs property. Absinthe was excellent too by the way.
The Venetian show is called Human Nature and it is fabulous. We have seen it several times. We went to Hitsville a few years ago and didn't like it at all. Human Nature all the way in our opinion!
My wife and I saw Human Nature like four years ago and we enjoyed it. Between the two shows go to Human Nature.
Human Nature is great!
We have seen both Hitzville (once) and Human Nature (4 times) and feel the latter is well worth the
relatively small price differential
Saw Human Nature at the old I. P./Quad One of the more energetic shows in Vegas!
