Miami, FL – April 3, 2018 – Opening night of The Bodyguard at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County brought South Florida audience members to their feet as Grammy Award-nominated and multi-platinum R&B superstar Deborah Cox ended the night with the irresistible classic I Wanna Dance with Somebody. The hit musical, featuring Deborah Cox as Rachel Marron and Judson Mills as Frank Farmer, is based on Lawrence Kasdan’s 1992 Oscar-nominated film.
