Dreamgirls, with a book and lyrics by Tom Eyen and music by Henry Krieger, was previously produced at The Muny in 2012.

Krieger and Eyen's Dreamgirls won six Tony Awards in its 1982 Broadway premiere. The late Michael Bennett took home the award for Best Choreography alongside collaborator Michael Peters. Jennifer Holliday memorably created the role of Effie to Tony-winning effect, stopping the show nightly with "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going." The 2006 film, adapted and directed by Bill Condon, earned Jennifer Hudson the Golden Globe and Academy Awards for her portrayal of Effie.

The Muny production also has associate choreography by Devin Tyler Hatch, scenic design by Edward E. Haynes, Jr., costume design by Leon Dobkowski, lighting design by Rob Denton, sound design by John Shivers and David Patridge, video design by Elaine McCarthy, wig design by Kelley Jordan, and production stage management by Michael J. Passaro.
