The creative team behind “Dreamgirls,” the movie, is getting a shot at the Oscar show. Laurence Mark, who produced the musical film in 2006, was named producer of the 81st annual Academy Awards ceremony on Wednesday, while Bill Condon, the “Dreamgirls” screenwriter and director, was named executive producer. The Oscar show is scheduled for broadcast on Feb. 22 on ABC. A primary goal, Mr. Mark said, will be to bring a wider range of movies into the presentation, whose host has not been named. “The Oscars should, of course, celebrate excellence,” Mr. Mark said. “But we also think it might be fun to celebrate the films of the year in general.” About 32 million viewers, a record low, watched this year’s broadcast, which Jon Stewart hosted.
