A Chorus Line

May 1-June 2, 2019
A Chorus Line examines one day in the lives of seventeen dancers, all vying for a spot in the “chorus line” of a Broadway musical. Zach, the director and choreographer, asks each dancer to speak about themselves in this nine-time Tony Award winner. Based on real Broadway dancers’ stories as told to fellow dancer and choreographer Michael Bennett, A Chorus Line is funny, heartbreaking, and refreshingly honest.
