*“Act II Opening� is a medley of Dreamgirls songs. In the original production, the medley consisted of “Dreamgirls,� “Move (You’re Steppin� on My Heart),� “Love Love Me Baby,� “Family,� “Heavy,� and “Cadillac Car� performed by Deena Jones and the Dreams and the ensemble. For the 1983 first national tour, the medley was changed to feature “Dreamgirls� and a new song, “Step on Over.� For the 2009 national tour, a new song, “What Love Can Do,� was paired with “Step on Over� for the second act opening. For the 2016 West End revival, “Act II Opening� was modified again to include a full-length reprisal of “Love Love Me Baby.�

**“Listen� was originally written for the 2006 film adaptation of Dreamgirls. It was added to the 2009 revival and 2016 West End production.
