The Temptations have been a major music force for the majority of my life. Their music has endured in a multi-culture world, and many of their songs have become classics. AIN’T TOO PROUD, The Life and Times of The Temptations, attempts to explain the phenomenon of a group who crossed over, stayed there, and became legendary. It’s all there – the ups and downs, the tragedies and triumphs, the lucky stars and the misfortunes, and the multi-faceted personalities of its members. And the fascinating story is told through their songs, non-stop dancing, and the camaraderie of men forging a new path in the musical world. AIN’T TOO PROUD is a feel-good, nostalgic, and thoroughly delight production. Don’t miss it.
