  • Description
    The Gogue Center presents the national tour of "Ain’t Too Proud—The Life and Times of The Temptations" at the Woltosz Theatre—Tuesday, December 3.

    "Ain’t Too Proud—The Life and Times of The Temptations" is the electrifying, smash-hit Broadway musical that follows The Temptations’ extraordinary journey from the streets of Detroit to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. With their signature dance moves and silky-smooth harmonies, The Temptations rose to the top of the charts, creating an amazing 42 Top Ten Hits with 14 reaching No. 1.

    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.

    This performance is presented as part of the Gogue Center’s 2024–25 Broadway Series and is sponsored by Al & Louise "Dudley" Cook, Jim & Susan McKee, Daryl & Diane Rosser, and Scott Bridge Company.

    Our 2024 Broadway Series is sponsored by WLTZ.

    Our 2024–25 season is sponsored by Walt & Ginger Woltosz.
