Dreamgirls

A 35-year wait ends in a triumphant London comeback at the Savoy Theatre

Dreamgirls is the award-winning show that follows the tumultuous journey of a young female singing group called The Dreams as they chase fame in the 1960s.

It features classic songs such as And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going, I Am Changing, One Night Only and Listen.

As the original trio of singers – Effie, Deena and Lorrell – begin to find stardom, their loyalties are stretched when they compete over status in the band and their men. They soon learn the hard lesson that show business is as tough as it is fabulous, and Effie, the original lead singer, finds herself upstaged by the less talented but more popular Leena. Effie is eventually replaced and while Deena enjoys her success, the burden of fame and stardom weighs heavily on her.

As the band begins to disintegrate – will their dreams survive?
