It's been less than an hour since you put this up originally. Weekend are quiter (especially in the evenings) around here since that's when many of us go to the theater we love to bash....er, um...I mean, talk about!
Give it some time....if anyone knows, they'll be happy to give you info.

well, if anbody has the book, please respond soon. thanks.
It's pretty standard as programs go. There are several pages of production photos, some costume sketches, and an essay from John Breglio.

there are approximately 20 pages of production photos with a few song quotes from the show. The center pages are a fold out with many of the "dreams" costumes featured. There is not a picture from "every" scene in the show just highlights that feature each main character and some of the features players. As stated above, fairly standard book nothing truly special (I happen to love the costume sketches by William Ivey Long). It is the only item specific to the 2010 cast since they haven't done a recording (for good or ill).

ok annas priest...why are you being mean? i'm just new here.
I really don't mean to be mean.. you just seem to be a little bit demanding!

no, i'm not demanding, at all. i'm a nice person. i'm not mean or annoying. i was just introduced to dreamgirls when i heard syesha mercado was on board. and that i've never had a program before. That's all. i'm sorry. :)

okay, i'm sorry if i may have offended anyone here. but i just wanted to make new friends, and i didn't know where to start. i didn't mean to make you all mad. thanks.
Don't worry, hope you like your program. I don't have it but I am sure it'll fine.
Not to be mean, but...you already ordered the program! Hence the snarky responses. Can't you just wait a bit until you get it and be surprised?
Have you seen the Dreamgirls tour?
Your question was answered, darling. Do you really expect a STRANGER to sit down and COUNT how many photos there are and then write down which scenes they all represent? That IS pretty demanding.
When joining a new board it is customary to lurk, get to know how things work, join conversations and then ask questions. Then you wouldn't have been suprised by the snarky comments. We like to snark around here. Sometimes we actually talk about theater...but we try not to let that get in our way.
You just won the entire internetz with that comment, dramamama.
