Dreamgirls in Atlanta with J-Holl#1

Posted: 4/23/07 at 9:11am

So I just bought tickets for my boyfriend and I to see Dreamgirls in Atlanta this July... and I was wondering who was cast in it other than Jennifer Holliday.... I searched but all I found was the 2002 cast. I certainly hope ramona keller does it again, though I'm sure she's tied up in London or something...

anywho, I'd appreciate any knowledge...

It's the music and I'm its hapless victim

Its entirely possible that most of the cast hasn't been set yet - July is a way off in Summer Stock speak.

With Miss Holliday, perhaps it should be called DREAMLADIES.

I really can't believe she's going to play this part again. Move on, woman.

How can they see with sequins in their eyes?

My theatre teacher is quite excited about this and bought tickets the first day she found out. I wish I could go ... but anyway

This will be the first time she's performed the role since JHUD won the Oscar for it. How much do you want to bet that she is going to try her hardest to recapture her glory days and try to recapture "her" song. It's sorta sad and pathetic in a way. They should rename the show "DreamGrannies".

If they already cast JHO in the role, they're going to have to make everyone else the same age. Oh well...what are you gonna do?

I've gotta agree. I think she is way too old for Effie.
