‘Dreamgirls’ electrifies
When the lights dim and the conductor taps his baton for the orchestra’s attention, anticipation spreads through the audience. Sometimes we are pleased, and sometimes we are disappointed. “Dreamgirls” definitely does not disappoint. This electrifying production moves at a wild pace that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats until the final curtain.
