Book and Lyrics by Tom Eyen Music by Henry Krieger Original Broadway Production Directed and Choreographed by Michael Bennett Orchestrations by Harold Wheeler A sweeping and inspirational journey through 20th-century American popular music, DREAMGIRLS follows the story of a black, all-girl singing trio from Chicago called "The Dreams" and the behind-the-scenes reality of the entertainment industry. At first, the Dreams' manager falls in love with the lead singer, Effie. Later, he abandons her both romantically and professionally, replacing her with someone with a more commercial look and sound. Eventually, Effie manages to recover from the blow and builds a successful career going solo.
