"Dreamgirls" tells the story "of an up-and-coming, 1960s singing girl group, and the triumphs and tribulations that come with fame and fortune." The original Broadway production opened on Dec. 20, 1981, at the Imperial Theatre and won six Tony Awards and three Drama Desk Awards in 1982. It closed on Broadway Aug. 11, 1985, after 1,521 performances. "Dreamgirls" was adapted into a movie that opened in December 2006 and went on to win two Academy Awards, five Golden Globes, and two Screen Actor’s Guild Awards in 2007 -- in addition to a Grammy Award for Best Song written for a Motion Picture (“Love You I Do”).
