Sonia Friedman Productions is delighted to announce that the highly anticipated Original
London Cast Recording of the new, hit West End musical Dreamgirls, will be released on
Sony Classical mid-April and is available to pre-order today via Amazon.
This brand new double-album was recorded live last month at the Savoy Theatre. It
captures the on-stage exhilaration of the original London cast of Dreamgirls, the 14 piece
band and the audience, and features iconic songs from the musical including ‘And I Am
Telling You I'm Not Going’, ‘I Am Changing’, ‘Listen’ and ‘One Night Only’.
The Dreamgirls Original London Cast Recording is produced by Henry Krieger and mixed
by Andy Bradfield. This cast recording features Amber Riley as Effie White, Liisi
LaFontaine as Deena Jones and Ibinabo Jack as Lorrell Robinson - making up the soulful
singing trio ‘The Dreams’; Joe Aaron Reid as Curtis Taylor Jr, Adam J. Bernard as Jimmy
Early, Tyrone Huntley as C.C. White, Nicholas Bailey as Marty and Lily Frazer as Michelle
Morris and Michael Afemaré, Jocasta Almgill, Callum Aylott, Hugo Batista, Samara
Casteallo, Chloe Chambers, Carly Mercedes Dyer, Joelle Dyson, Kimmy Edwards,
Candace Furbert, Nathan Graham, Ashley Luke Lloyd, Gabriel Mokake, Siân NathanielJames, Sean Parkins, Kirk Patterson, Ryan Reid, Rohan Richards, Noel Samuels, Durone
Stokes and Tosh Wanogho-Maud.
The long-awaited UK premiere of Dreamgirls opened at the Savoy Theatre in December
2016 to widespread critical acclaim, 35 years after originally opening on Broadway and is
Directed and Choreographed by Olivier and Tony Award®-winning Casey Nicholaw (The
Book of Mormon, Disney’s Aladdin and Something Rotten!), with Set Design by Tim
Hatley, Costume Design by Gregg Barnes, Lighting Design by Hugh Vanstone, Sound
Design by Richard Brooker and Hair Design by Josh Marquette. The Musical Supervisor is
Nick Finlow, the Orchestrator is Harold Wheeler, with Additional Material by Willie
Reale.
Swarovski is delighted to be the Set and Costume Design partner for Dreamgirls, bringing
to life the incredible visions of Tim Hatley and Gregg Barnes. Over one million Swarovski
crystals have been incorporated into the production, adorning 275 costumes and 3 crystal
curtains.
Dreamgirls transports you to a revolutionary time in American music history. Dreamgirls
charts the tumultuous journey of a young female singing trio from Chicago, Illinois called
‘The Dreams’, as they learn the hard lesson that show business is as tough as it is
fabulous.
With Book and Lyrics by Tom Eyen and Music by Henry Krieger, the original Broadway
production of Dreamgirls, Directed and Choreographed by Michael Bennett, opened in
1981 and subsequently won six Tony Awards®. The original cast recording won two
Grammy awards for Best Musical Album and Best Vocal Performance for Jennifer Holliday’s
‘And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going.’ In 2006 it was adapted into an Oscar winning motion
picture starring Beyoncé Knowles, Jennifer Hudson, Eddie Murphy and Jamie Foxx.
Liisi LaFontaine is appearing with the support of UK Equity, incorporating the Variety
Artistes’ Federation, pursuant to an exchange program between American Equity and UK
Equity.
