I saw this show in NY in 1983 but Jennifer and the other guy who played James Thunderbird had moved to CA to do the Dreamgirls there. Their replacements were just as good but of course the originals had edge over them. This was the bomb and i did however enjoy the movie version.

i wish we had singers like this now, i felt all kind of chills it came staright from her heart, and she had true talent; people like her and whitney are hard to find the era of good music and REAL singing w/o auto tune and junk is over.
