Sergio on Ain't Too Proud: "This [show] has been effortless. We worked hard of course, but Dominque [Morisseau] has written such a perfect book of a musical and the music of The Temptations and Des [McAnuff] and I work so well together, so it's been really effortless. It's actually been, if I were to use a word, it's just breath. There's so much breath in it."
