Jennifer Holliday was always meant to touch the world. From her early days as a girl singing solos with the choir at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church in Houston, TX to her years on the Broadway stage and beyond, her inimitable voice has riveted the hearts of audiences from around the world.
A Broadway Legend in every sense of the term, her professional journey began one fateful Sunday in Houston while singing in her church choir when Ms. Holliday was discovered by dancer Jamie Patterson, who was touring in the national company of A Chorus Line. Wowed by her talent, Patterson bought the 17-year-old a plane ticket to New York City and arranged for her to have her first Broadway audition. During that audition, she sang her favorite gospel hymn, a song that would be a proven testimony over again for years to come: God Will Take Care of You.
She was hired that day by the show's creator and director, Vinette Carroll, and made her Broadway debut in 1980 at age 19 in the revival of Your Arms Are Too Short To Box With God.
Ms. Holliday's vocal prowess came to the attention of many theater luminaries and critics, most notably the renowned Broadway director and choreographer Michael Bennett, the creator of A Chorus Line. Bennett invited her to participate in an untitled project that he was producing, a show about a young, Black girl group. The show would catapult Ms. Holliday from Broadway Baby to household name just a year later in the lead role as the iconic Effie Melody White in the 1981 smash hit Dreamgirls.
Ms. Holliday immortalized Effie, forever creating a template for delivering gut-wrenching, timeless performances, evidenced in her garnering a Grammy Award for the performance of the show-stopping torch ballad And I am Telling You, I'm Not Going and a coveted Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for her role as Effie.
Dinner or two-drink minimum required in addition to the tickets, plus a $0.49 music royalty fee per patron. Doors open for dinner 1 1/2 hour before the first show and 1/2 hour before the second show if there is a second show, except for Private Events. Ticket sales are final. Catalina's Management
