I Dream

I Dream is a British children's musical television comedy programme aimed at and mostly about teenagers, which aired in 2004 (see 2004 in television). It was set at an esteemed performing arts college near Barcelona, Spain, and focuses on 13 teenagers who are invited to enrol at the college, Avalon Heights, over the summer. All eight members of the pop group S Club 8 star in the show alongside five other young actors and actresses and Hollywood film actor Christopher Lloyd.

I Dream has the members of S Club 8 playing supposedly exaggerated versions of themselves, albeit with identical names to their real life counterparts. Each episode of the show includes several (usually two or more) songs and dance numbers involving both members and non-members of the band. Cast member George Wood called the show "a modern day Fame".

The lead production company was 19 Television, a subsidiary of the corporation 19 Management, which is owned by the show's executive producer, Simon Fuller. The first episode of I Dream aired on Wednesday 22 September 2004 on BBC One. From the week of 23 November episodes were aired on Thursday instead of Wednesday, and the thirteenth and final episode aired on 16 December and featured Laila Rouass. Reruns of the show in the UK were broadcast on the CBBC Channel.

Critical Acclaim

I Dream opened to mostly positive reviews from both the press and those involved with the Civil Rights Movement. RollingOut.com said "The life of Dr. King as chronicled in the stage musical I Dream, is right on time as a reminder of what the fight was for. The dynamically talented cast delivered stirring performances to move audience members through each riveting scene.”Creative Loafing reported that "Tappin's hugely ambitious world premiere follows the example of Broadway's big, rock-influenced musicals such as Jesus Christ Superstar, Evita, and Les Miserables."The Huffington Post stated "[The show brought] some of the heartiest former Civil Rights activists in the house to tears, before raising them to their feet at the finale for, perhaps, the greatest standing ovation the show will ever receive."

    I Dream

    by: Dannii Minogue

    Oh
    I wish I could tell you my secrets, my dreams
    Oh whoa
    Never thought of me as sentimental
    Never thought of you as just a friend
    But now that we are something more than distant
    I got a need for you that never ends
    No matter how hard I try I just can't deny it
    So I dream (dream) dream (dream) boy I dream about you
    Yes I dream (dream) just to make it through the night
    I dream (dream) dream (dream) it's so lonely here without you baby
    Please, only you can make it right
    I dream, I dream, boy I dream about you
    About you, about you
    Holding on to feelings so strong is a danger
    When will the time be right to just give it a try
    I want to tell you all my secrets
    But I keep them locked inside
    Here alone I'm just waiting for a sign
    So it's just another night and I'm here without you
    So I dream (dream) dream (dream) boy I dream about you
    Yes I dream (dream) just to make it through the night
    I dream (dream) dream (dream) it's so lonely here without you baby
    Please, only you can make it right
    Try, I try, try, I'm here without you
    Try, try, still I dream, still I dream about you oh
    Ooh oh, I dream when I'm not with you oh
    Yes I dream (dream) dream (dream) boy I dream about you
    Yes I dream (dream) just to make it through the night
    I dream (dream) dream (dream) it's so lonely here without you baby
    Please, only you can make it right
