The Severe Sistas

The vocals in this group are SEVERE! There isn't a lightweight in the group. These women are prepared to bring the gospel truth! This group includes Broadway vets, award winners and show stoppers. They would definitely bring a sophisticated expertise to the muses.

The Dream Team

Hot Take: In terms of vocal ability, vocal style, acting ability and range, this group might be the best fit. These are seasoned performers and they all can sing solo and in groups. They even fit the personalities of the muses well. The best part of this group, though? The reunion of Broadway's original Dreamgirls - all of whom are still working, booked and busy in Hollywood!
