A Chorus Line is a stunning concept musical capturing the spirit and tension of a Broadway chorus audition. Exploring the inner lives and poignant ambitions of professional Broadway performers, the show features one powerhouse number after another. Memorable musical numbers include “What I Did for Love,” “One,” “I Can Do That,” “At the Ballet,” “The Music and the Mirror,” and “I Hope I Get It.” A brilliantly complex fusion of song, dance, and compellingly authentic drama, the show was instantly recognized as a classic.
A Chorus Line: Teen Edition is a full-length version of the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical, adapted for performance by teens with family audiences. Every aspect of the show has been developed specifically for younger performers: dialogue and content are age-appropriate, dance sequences are of a length befitting teen dancers, and allowances are made to feature actors of any race or ethnicity.
