About The Show
‘Shola Sings Motown’ is a classy, high-energy, solo show that spotlights some of Motown’s best-loved material. Featuring all time greats from favourite Motown artists such as Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross and the Supremes, The Temptations and Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, this show is designed to get you on the dance floor and keep you there!
Shola provides all the grace, glitz and glamour required of a true diva. She takes to the stage wearing beautiful custom-designed evening gowns and truly looks the part with her graceful silhouette, lovely smile, beehive hairdo and diamante jewellery.
Shola’s vocals have been described as sounding like “chocolate soul”. She has a powerful, smooth yet expressive voice which attracts positive feedback wherever she sings. With a warm, inviting stage presence and charming persona, it’s hard not to be enthralled by her performance.
A favourite part of the show is when Shola invites two of the audience up on stage to be “The Supremes”. With their own microphones and tambourines, Shola runs through a dance routine with them before the “backing singers” perform a song with her, much to the delight of everyone watching.
