Detroit: Music of the Motor City at Segal Centre for Performing Arts

DETROIT: MUSIC OF THE MOTOR CITY

From Motown to hip-hop, the music never stops.

Following last season’s sold-out success The Secret Chord: A Leonard Cohen Experience, Soulpepper returns to the Segal Centre with another electrifying musical journey.

Once called “The City of the Future,” Detroit shaped the world with its innovation and music. From the Motown Sound to jazz, hip-hop, and rock, its soundtrack tells a story of rise, fall, and resilience. Witness Detroit’s history come to life—through the rhythm of the assembly line, the echoes of abandoned factories, and the unstoppable pulse of a city that still sings.

Featuring iconic hits like “Dancing in the Street” by Martha and the Vandellas, “My Girl” by The Temptations, “Lose Yourself” by Eminem, and “What’s Going On” by Marvin Gaye.
