Mr. Bennett's Choreography Recreated by Nora Cherry
Until a musical about dancing felines surpassed
it, A Chorus Line was the longest-running musical
or dramatic show ever staged on Broadway, playing for
6,137 performances.
Although it deals with the hopes, fears,
frustrations, and insecurities of a specific group of
dancers, the musical skillfully conveys the universal
experience of anyone who has ever stood in line in an
effort to present his or her qualifications for a job.
Featuring songs such as "What I Did For
Love," "One," and the song all the world knows by another
name but here goes by "Dance: Ten, Looks: Three."
Come see why A Chorus Line has thrilled
audiences worldwide.
