With a book by David West Read and direction by Luke Sheppard, the musical features the songs of the late Roy Orbison. Performances will begin in September at Toronto's CAA Theatre and continue through December with exact dates and casting to be announced.

Featuring such Orbison hits as "I Drove All Night," "You Got It," "Only the Lonely," " Crying," "Oh, Pretty Woman," and more, In Dreams tells the story of a country-rock singer who invites her old bandmates to join her for 鈥渢he party of a lifetime,鈥� while keeping her true motivations a secret.
