Aroview: Dazzling musical numbers and sassy performances jive in this acclaimed Motown musical charting the rise of fictional girl group, 'The Dreamettes', in the turbulent 1960s and 70s.

Initially recruited as back-ups for a legendary soul singer with a drug addiction (Eddie Murphy), the girls come to live out a classic rags-to-riches tale, where image rules over vocal talent and master manipulation comes with the territory. Former 'American Idol' contestant, Jennifer Hudson impresses with an Oscar-winning turn, memorably belting out numbers like "And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going".
