What a story this a story it is. Full of hard work and drama, personal conflict and social and political revolutions, the performance of The Temptations, is also the story of the famed record label Motown. So, it is the story of R&B music and it’s rise on the American music scene. As portrayed by The Temptations, there is really nothing more compelling than that tale. Noted playwright Dominique Morisseau, who is no stranger to writing about the world of music, has woven the narrative with the music brilliantly. And director Des McAnuff, who won both Tony and Olivier awards for his work on Jersey Boys and who also helmed Summer: The Donna Summer Musical, keeps the excitement going at a steady pace. If you want to savour all of this, then come down to the Tennessee Performing Arts Center in Nashville and catch a true classic that you are sure to love!
