Around this production
Staged at the enormous Hippodrome Theatre (capacity over 5,000), these extravaganzas were a New York institution. The show ran for 461 performances, a remarkable achievement for the era.
Months after the Broadway opening, patrons drawn to the show by the song’s popular recording would find its subdued staging and abrupt termination odd. “It was almost like it wasn’t there,” adds Schmidt. Before the Parade Passes By Gower Champion and the Glorious American Musical Joh, p. 242
If Holliday’s solo is one of the most powerful theatrical coups to be found in a Broadway musical since Ethel Merman sang “Everything’s Coming Up Roses” at the end of Act I of Gypsy, so Dreamgirls is the same kind of breakthrough for musical stagecraft that Gypsy was.
