| The people who have answered so far explicitly mention why the END of the song is effective by her being behind the table and pulled upstage. But I noticied you didn't mention the end in your post. You asked why he put her behind the table in the number. My answer to that would be that she doesn't spend the entire time behind the table, which you know since you have watched it so many times :-) The staging is varied. She starts behind the table, comes out, interacts with Curtis, does the infamous fan kick, then returns to the table at the end, as noted so that she can be brilliantly whisked away which is both cinematic and emphasizes her being "wiped" out of the group in favor of the new Dreamgirls. |
