I AM loving these rare audio clips from the '80s productions of Dreamgirls. I love how different each Effie was. There was only one Jennifer Holliday, but there were so many unique Effies and I love getting to know each one of them. They provide a nice authentic alternative from the film, which I also love. #Dreamgirls40
I got the chance to meet Alisa Gyse many years later and I was so star-struck I could barely speak with her. Her performance was exceptional and I had seen the original NYC company several times and a variety of Deena's over the years.
I saw her on Broadway in 1987 she was so incredible!!! I'm proud to have her as a Facebook friend!!!!!!
Excellent! Strong, clear, on-key voice.
That's my awesome sister!!! I love you Sharon!

This lady right here was a pleasant surprise too the max! I love her whole, 'Effie.'
One of my all time favorite Effies. She had the power and the skill and didn't try to replicate Holliday.
She and Alisa Gyse was the most present surprise of my life. Those two carried the show with ease! I loved the whole show!

I love her interpretation of this. She totally makes it her own.
Amazing.
She's channeling Patti Labelle
