A stage play that suppose to take you through events
leading up to the final gun shot that fatally ended
Marvin's life. Based on the book, My Brother Marvin
which includes handwrittn excerpts by Marvin and a
memoir by his younger sister, Zeola Gaye. The 2013
cast includes the Oscar Nominee, Lynn Whitfield as
Marvin’s mother (Alberta Gaye), Clifton Powell
(Marvin Gaye Sr), Keith Washington (Marvin Gaye), Tony
Grant (Played Marvin in his younger years) and Lia Grant
(Tammi Terrell & Tina Turner), Michael Knowlton
(David Ruffin). Clifton Powell, Lynn Whitfield, Keith
Washington each were good. Overall I feel the play was
not good. Lame. There should have been a disclaimer
in advance prior to purchasing tickets stating no
songs of Marvin will be used in play. Rather than
disclosed such info at the end of show. The So call
Motown songs that were used in play I never heard
of such lyrics in my life. Used songs with beats and
melodies that sound similar like original songs and
lyrics that's familiar. However, there were noticeable
differences. A pure case of deception. The end was plain
awful. I stop taking pictures.
