Anvil Theatre presents Terrell Edwards: A Night of Motown, October 24

High-energy evening revives the music and magic of a cultural movement

The electric concert experience A Night of Motown celebrates one of the most uplifting and memorable times in music history, transporting listeners back to the golden era of soul. Featuring the incomparable Canadian singer Terrell Edwards, the event takes place October 24 at 7:30 pm at the Anvil Theatre in New Westminster.

A Night of Motown highlights the timeless sounds of Detroit that defined a generation. Fronted by the smooth, velvet vocals of world-class crooner Edwards, the evening delivers a high-energy journey through the definitive hits of legendary artists like The Temptations, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Earth, Wind & Fire, and many more.

Edwards flawlessly blends the slick choreography, undeniable nostalgia, and sophisticated showmanship of classic Motown with a fresh, contemporary vibe. This show boasts a large band, dancers, and back-up singers bringing a foot-stomping, sing-along celebration of the rhythm and blues that shaped a generation.

Tickets are available through the Anvil Theatre.
