Is this Nell Carter? If i'm not mistaken she was suppose to be the original EFFIE, but she got GIMME A BREAK, so Jennifer Holiday took over, she had just finished the play Your Arms Too Short To Box With GOD.

What a wonderful piece of American Musical Theater you have provided us. Thank You! That Michael Bennett was such a Master at this craft. He is missed! loved hearing Nell Carter again, Wow!

Do You Know Where i can find the book and lyrics for this play
They really should have kept "Gonna Be My Time" in the show. It's far better for the disco portion of the show than the disco version of "One Night Only."

@MotownConnoisseur30 But the ballad version dragged....

@babyboi1002 True! The ballad version of "One Night Only" is better than the ballad version of "Gonna Be My Time." Yet the disco version of "Gonna Be My Time" is better than the disco version of "One Night Only."

@MotownConnoisseur30 Thats probably why they chose to stick with ONO...I do believe that the ballad version is suppose to sound better than the disco version...and with GBMT, that wasn't happening.
And also the lyrics didn't fit The Dreams
