Dreamgirls is an entertaining show, and there are clearly some very talented ensemble members (with a live instrumental ensemble). However, the music isn't as memorable as one would think given the time frame that the musical takes place. Also, a number of understudies were performing that evening, so it didn't run quite as smoothly as it might have. Overall we enjoyed the show, and I would recommend seeing it if you can get discounted tickets in the future.

by nepashowgirl on 5/13/13Scranton Cultural Center - ScrantonI was very pleasantly surprised with this show as this was a show that wasn't on my list of shows I wanted to see until it came to the Culteral Center and I read the reviews for the show. All of the singers were great and the show was entertaining as any show I have seen on Broadway. I'm not sure if the Broadway cast could have been better than the touring cast as all were wonderful. I would highly recommend seeing Dreamgirls if it comes to your town. My friend who went with me to see Dreamgirls, first words after the show were 'LOVE, LOVE, LOVED IT!!!'

by BaltoBoxMan on 5/7/13Modell Performing Arts Center at the Lyric - BaltimoreThe Modell Lyric production of Dreamgirls was one of the best versions of the unforgettable Broadway Musical I have ever seen. All of the voices and performances were uniformly strong - even though two of the leads were understudies the night I saw it. It was obviously a production on a limited budget, but the creative use of lighting and computer graphics offset that minor problem. No seat in the Lyric is actually a good one, I was in a close-in row (Row C) and way off to the side. For this production, this vantage point was great. I never felt like I was straining to see or hear. I think I've found a new desirable section for future Lyric shows.
