5 roles
D5-Bb2. Founder and last surviving original member of The Temptations. Never the flashiest performer, but always the rock of the group. A stand-up guy, tough, with a big heart and deep conscience.
G5-Bb2. Friends with Paul since elementary school, Eddie created most of thegroup’s vocal arrangements and served as wardrobe manager. Outspoken. Loved cornbread so much, they nicknamed him “Corn.”
C5-F2. No relation to Otis, Paul was one of the Founding Members of The Temptations and the group’s resident choreographer. Well-liked and kind, but unable to cope with his own demons.
A4-Bb2. Loved his mama. The bass of the group and one of the first members Otis recruited. Nicknamed “Blue” because of his fondness for the color, Melvin was incredibly loyal to the group and, particularly, Otis.
D5-Bb2. Lead singer of The Temptations. After Al, helped take the group to the top of the charts. As electric on stage as “Lightning In A Bottle.” Maybe the most charismatic front man in pop music history.
