Dreamgirls

Full of onstage joy and backstage drama, Dreamgirls tells the triumphs and tribulations that come with fame and fortune. Hopeful talents Deena Jones, Lorrell Robinson and Effie White are performing as The Dreamettes when ambitious agent Curtis Taylor, Jr. discovers them. He lands them a job as backup singers for the soul and rock ‘n' roll sensation James "Thunder" Early and begins to guide their quickly rising career. However, when the beautiful Deena emerges as the star of the group rather than the full-voiced Effie, the girls are brought to personal and professional crossroads.

 

 

Admission is free, but tickets are required and may be picked up in advance two hours prior to each performance event on a first-come, first serve basis at the West Las Vegas Library Theatre box office.

 

There is a two ticket limit per person, due to the limited number of free admission tickets and seats available. For more information, please call 507-3989. Free and open to the public.
