Winner of 6 Tony Awards, DREAMGIRLS is a smash Broadway musical based upon the show business aspirations and successes of R&B acts such as The Supremes, The Shirelles, James Brown, Jackie Wilson, and others. The musical follows the story of a young female singing trio from Chicago, Illinois called “The Dreams”, who become music superstars.

Full of onstage joy and backstage drama, DREAMGIRLS tells the story of an up-and-coming 1960s girl singing group, and the triumphs and tribulations that come with fame and fortune. DREAMGIRLS sizzles with dazzling dance and the legendary songs “One Night Only,” “I Am Changing” and “I Am Telling You I’m Not Going.” DREAMGIRLS is a show about a time in American musical history when what is called rhythm and blues blended with other styles of popular music creating a new American sound.
