Highly acclaimed Dreamgirls hailed as SA’s “musical of a lifetime”
The international production of Dreamgirls opened to much fanfare last month and has gone on to be hailed unanimously by critics, stage and television personalities and local celebrities as “the finest” musical ever staged in South Africa. Audiences representing the multi-spectrum of local society, aged from nine to ninety share the sentiments of critics and celebrities with their raucous applause and standing ovations at every performance.
“Male or female, young and old, from Sandton to Soweto, Boksburg to Brixton and beyond, we are delighted that Dreamgirls has attracted new audiences and thrilled regular theatre-goers,” says Hazel Feldman, Producer of Dreamgirls. Feldman is delighted by the enthusiastic audience response and appreciation of this award-winning Broadway production which, with its captivating use of the latest technology, 480 glamorous costumes and knock-out performances by the entirely local cast has considerably lifted the benchmark of musical theatre in South Africa.
