I DREAMED A DREAMGIRL

BLAKE McIVERand EMERSON COLLINSstarred together in four seasons of BRAVO’s hit social series The People’s Couchand now they hit the stage together in a live show FOR THE FIRST TIME! 

I DREAMED A DREAMGIRLis a two-man tour de force as they 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!

 Between them, Emerson and Blake have performed, produced, hosted and won awards in studio and independent film, network and cable television, national tours, radio, studio recording, soundtracks, countless benefits and every kind of theatre!
