(Vancouver, B.C.) – The Firehall Arts Centre is pleased to present the return of award-winning powerhouse Krystle Dos Santos and her band in A History of Motown from Wednesday, August 6 to Sunday, August 17, 2025.
After overwhelming audience responses and sold-out performances in April, A History of Motown returns — and it’s more than just a concert, it’s a full-on party! Audiences are invited to stand up, dance, and sing along as Krystle takes you on a high-energy journey through the legendary hits that defined a generation. From the infectious rhythms of The Supremes to the timeless melodies of Stevie Wonder, Dos Santos brings the magic of Motown to life with unforgettable vocals, captivating stage presence, and an electric atmosphere.
“Both the feel-good tunes and the compelling narratives behind them will stay with you long after you’ve left the theatre.”
– Vince Kanasoot | Stir Vancouver
“A History of Motown literally has the audience dancing in the aisle.”

“Krystle Dos Santos blew me away. From the moment she hit the stage, it was like stepping into a time machine. Her voice? Absolute powerhouse. She tackled hits from The Supremes, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye—and didn’t just sing them, she felt them. And so did we.”
– Mary Sheridan | MaryInVancity.com
