Dreamgirls

Music by Henry Krieger
Lyrics and Book by Tom Eyen

Inspired by Motown and R&B legends of the 1960s-70s, Dreamgirls follows the rising stardom of the Dreamettes, an all-girl singing trio from Chicago. The three best friends team up with a driven, demanding manager who is determined to see their—and his—star rise. As their careers begin to take off, changes are made to ensure their mass appeal to the pop market. Egos are bruised, tempers flare, and hearts are broken in pursuit of stardom. Dreamgirls is a love letter to American R&B music and the artists that make such music great.
