Music

Dream come true

by Leslie Turk

IberiaBank and PASA are sending a group of Northside High freshmen girls to the local production of Dreamgirls and affording them the opportunity to meet the cast. As part of its sponsorship of the Performing Arts Society of Acadiana's production of Dreamgirls at the Heymann Performing Arts Center on March 27, IberiaBank is making it possible for a group of Northside High freshman girls to attend the performance and meet the cast.

Dreamgirls tells the rags-to-riches story of a 1960s girl group and the triumphs and tribulations that come with fame and fortune. Music for the performance is by Academy Award nominee Henry Krieger and lyrics and book by Tony and Grammy Award winning Tom Eyen.

The Northside High students were nominated by their teachers to participate.

Dreamgirls marks the final performance of PASA's 2012-2013 Main Stage Series; book tickets here.

PASA will host a  special event, "Boz Scaggs," live at the Heymann Center on April 21.
