CURRENT NEWS
EMERSON & BLAKE ON TOUR!
I DREAMED A DREAMGIRL is a two-man tour de force as Blake and Emerson hit the stage together for the FIRST TIME to tell the stories of their relationship and careers through showtunes, duets, Disney favs (and deep cuts), mashups and medleys that (probably) shouldn’t exist combining theatre, cabaret and pop. It may not all make sense…but it will be fun!
