Mott, Motown & More features performances by a host of local celebrities, members of the community as well as MCC staffers, lip-synching to recordings from Motown and other record companies. It has become a hot-ticket item for many, and a must-see event for others.
“We’re so pleased to be back in person for our 16th year and as we gear up for the College’s 100th Anniversary in 2023,” said Lennetta Coney, president of The Foundation for Mott Community College.
“Mott, Motown & More continues to be a ‘must-see event’ in the community, and we’re so appreciative of the volunteers who perform in the show, enabling us to provide the financial support so many of our students need,” Coney added.
Interpreting services for the deaf and hard of hearing will be provided by MCC’s Sign Language Interpreter Training Program student interns, and certified supervising interpreters.
