For five thrilling, fleeting minutes, it's heaven on Broadway, one of those hallowed occasions in theater when anxious expectation is transformed in a heartbeat into sweet consummation.
The New York Times, Broadway production review
Why see A Chorus Line?
The journey to stardom is riddled with challenges!
The super-competitive, cut-throat world of the Broadway show is the focus of this sensational musical, which originally premiered in 1975 and won an unprecedented nine Tony Awards in 1976. Created by Marvin Hamlisch, with lyrics by Edward Kleban we follow the grueling final audition of 17 dancers who are all vying for a place on the chorus line, presided over by a demanding director who isn't afraid to put them through their paces. Personal stories, vanity and dreams come to the fore for our hopefuls; but will be be good enough to make the final cut?
What is it about?
The soulful and revealing score includes "What I Did for Love," "The Music and the Mirror," "At the Ballet" and "Dance Ten, Looks Three. " Zach, the punishing director not only wants them to dance for the job of their lives, he also demands to know more about them. Asking each of them to talk about themselves, they starts by giving their names, age, hometown and reason for being a dancer, but reluctantly expand on this to share stories about about their families, friends, lovers, ambitions and careers. One by one, they come forward.
Some are shy or reluctant, while others are more than happy to reveal their innermost thoughts. From funny to heartbreaking, these 17 dancers share with us the stories of their lives. They put themselves on the line to get a job on the line. And when they’re done, so is the audition. And the final chorus line of 8 dancers is chosen.
