No scrubs detected here, as ** has the exclusive first look images of *CrazySexyCool – The TLC Musical*, which has its worldwide opening tonight at Arena Stage's Kreeger Theater in Washington, D.C.
The show follows the meteoric rise of TLC, the 1990s girl group out of Atlanta who sold over 60 million albums and scored four number one singles with "Creep," "Waterfalls," "No Scrubs," and "Unpretty."
The official description of the musical notes that: "For more than 30 years, TLC has pushed artistic boundaries and inspired millions with music that remains as urgent and relevant today as ever. Now, their extraordinary legacy explodes onto the stage in *CrazySexyCool – The TLC Musical*. Go beyond the headlines, the fiery scandals, explosive creative clashes, and heartbreaking tragedies to experience the powerful story of unbreakable sisterhood, defiance, triumph, and enduring love."
