The award-winning musical "Dreamgirls" is back on stage after an absence of 25 years, and it is an excellent production. This story of a girl singing group whose meteoric rise coincides with a sea change in American popular music never grows old. Some of our readers probably saw the 2006 film version with Beyonce, Eddie Murphy and Jennifer Hudson. Nicely done there, but the continuing excitement of this musical legend comes through best in the immediacy of a stage performance.

Bow Wow, Brandon T. Jackson, Naturi Naughton and Ice Cube are among the stars in “Lottery Ticket.” Does the film win your heart as a comedy?
