Why Detroit holds a special place in Jennifer Holliday's heart
The 20th anniversary of 'Dreamgirls' is being celebrated in Detroit with a Music Hall screening and a live performance by Jennifer Holliday. The event marks the local launch of ODX Studios, an entertainment company focused on presenting immersive movie experiences.
The 'Dreamgirls: 20th Anniversary Movie Experience' will take place at Detroit's Music Hall on April 4-5. Jennifer Holliday will sing her iconic 'And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going' live onstage after each screening. The event is part of a national series to reintroduce classic films as shared experiences. Detroit is the first city to host an ODX event, with other stops planned across the US. The city's music history, particularly the Motown era, makes it a natural setting for the film's return. The anniversary event celebrates the movie's exploration of ambition, loyalty, and fame.
