Real Women Have Curves celebrated its bright and buoyant Broadway opening on April 27 at the James Earl Jones Theatre. Broadway.com got a behind-the-scenes view of the festivities, but we also caught the stars on the red carpet before the curtain even went up on their big night.
"What a dream come true," said Justina Machado, now a Tony nominee for her performance as matriarch Carmen García. "I don't really fit into the world of what Broadway kind of used to be. I don't sound like a Disney princess. But we're singing our things and we're sounding amazing."
Hear from Tony-nominated composers Joy Huerta and Benjamin Velez, director Sergio Trujillo, and more of the show's stars on opening night.
