An electrifying new musical about the life and times of The Temptations, the greatest R&B group of all time (Billboard Magazine 2017).
They were five young guys on the streets of Detroit when they were discovered by Berry Gordy, who signed them to his legendary new label. After 24 attempts, they finally had a hit and the rest is history-
