Opening was, um, fine. Not earth shattering, not bad. Celia Keenan-Bolger gave a wonderful speech.

Great energy from Ain't Too Proud. Didn't realize that restaurant owner Nate from Difficult People was in it. That's awesome!

Good opening number. AIN"T TOO PROUD just sold some tickets.

The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Thought "Aint Too Proud" was lackluster. Cruise ship at best.

Ain't too proud had nice costumes, the opening (from what I saw) was okay, and I liked Celia's speech. I liked ATP but I' mnot familiar with the show so I can't say much other than the songs didn't feel fast enough until the end.

I usually try not to get too thirsty on here, but...yes. I agree with this.
