But BeBe and CeCe Winans have pushed things to the next level with the announcement of a gospel musical about
their now defunct duo.
Born for This: The BeBe Winans Story is coming to the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta, GA Jan. 20-Feb. 14, 2016.
Charles Randolph-Wright, director of Motown the Musical, will direct the Broadway production chronicling the

Walk of Fame and will be inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in May.
To their credit, the duo has three Grammy Awards, nine Dove Awards, two NAACP Image Awards, two Soul
Train Music Awards, and numerous Stellar Awards.
