Ain't Too Proud – The Life and Times of The Temptations is the electrifying, new smash-hit Broadway musical that follows The Temptations' extraordinary journey from the streets of Detroit to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. With their signature dance moves and silky-smooth harmonies, they rose to the top of the charts creating an amazing 42 Top Ten Hits with 14 reaching number one.
Nominated for 12 Tony® Awards and the winner of the 2019 Tony Award for Best Choreography, Ain't Too Proud tells the thrilling story of brotherhood, family, loyalty, and betrayal, as the group's personal and political conflicts threatened to tear them apart during a decade of civil unrest in America.
Written by three-time Obie Award winner Dominique Morisseau, directed by two-time Tony Award winner Des McAnuff (Jersey Boys), and featuring the Tony-winning choreography of Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys, On Your Feet!), the unforgettable story of this legendary quintet is set to the beat of the group's treasured hits, including "My Girl," "Just My Imagination," "Get Ready," "Papa Was a Rolling Stone," and so many more.

The play was awesome. It reminded me when music was music and singer could actually sing. The cast line up was spot on. They played the hell out of their character. Love it
This musical is so much fun, yet also very poignant. I forgot how many fabulous songs the Temptations had! I found the story fascinating and as I said, it was hard to sit still and not get up and boogie! The band is awesome as well. Definitely recommend this musical!
I was on the edge if my seat the entire performance. The music, the performers and the story just pulls you in. By the end, i was a Temptation myself!!
Fantastic performances by the entire cast. Absolutely entertaining from beginning to end. Foot tapping , seat dancing joy.
The show was awesome from the first note to the last. The back story on all the guys made it one of the best shows I've ever seen. Having all the other competing singing groups and song writers was fantastic. Showing what it was like over the years with Motown and how the song process takes place was intriguing. Congratulations to all the groups you were the best.
Excellent talent! Fantastic vocals and choreography, great performances
The show was lively and a great call and response.
The singing and dancing were great! It was definitely a feel good experience.
Thoroughly enjoyed this experience and recommend it to everyone - Temp fans and those new to their music. LOVED IT!
Show started a little late but The Cast was Amazing! Dance moves were Great!
Great performance. The actor who portrayed Eddie Kendricks was especially amazing!
Being very familiar with the Temptation's music, the performances were absolutely amazing. Learning of the Temptation's background and story made the performance more intriguing. The way the performances and their story were intermingled made the musical beloved.
This play was FANTASTIC I enjoyed it so much I didn't want it to end. I wish everyone I know had seen it. I came that night and played their songs for 2 days
A fantastic show!! The singing and dancing were both excellent. The story as told was well done, interesting and thought-provoking. I would definitely see it again, if I can. I'm sorry it had a limited engagement here in Chicago.
It was fabulous, amazing, musical overall the show was beautiful. I enjoyed every minute !!
The singing was excellent and provided us warm remembrances of the Temptations.
Everything went smoothly and enjoyably...which is all I ask of a jukebox show like this.
We attended "Ain't Too Proud" and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Parking was easy and convenient. The performance was, as expected, filled with great hits from the Temptations. The performers were very talented. The audience was engaged throughout. The story that was told along with the "hit music" was sad and poignant. There were also amusing anecdotes along the way. We highly recommend this.
My wife and I enjoyed and loved all the music and stories about the temptations it really was fantastic.
