Later that year, she understudied the role of Effie in the original 1981 production of Dreamgirls, going on to play the role in the 1987 revival. She won the Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critic Circle Awards for her role in Cy Coleman's The Life. White has also appeared on Broadway in Cats, Carrie, Once on this Island, How to Succeed..., Chicago, and Fela!. White's concert performances include Funny Girl, Hair, Dreamgirls, and South Pacific.
