We have seen A Chorus Line 6 times over the past 34 years since it opened in 1975. We saw the original cast in 1975 and then again in London and in Florida.
It is our favorite show of all time and this documentary of how someone gets to Broadway via audition after audition including the disappointments is the essence of A Chorus Line. Including reel to reel audio tapes of Michael Bennett as he created the show were fantastic as was following the current set up of the revival. Marvin Hamlisch was there to tell us about his writing the entire score for the show.
We were pleasantly surprised to see the theatre full to capacity on a Sunday afternoon in hot Florida.
It brought back so many memories and the music is still among the very best ever written for Broadway. Every single song in the show is memorable and many were singing along as they did them.
We recommend it highly when and if it comes to your city. If not, the DVD I am sure will be available in a few months.
Wow! Thank you Michael Bennett, he would have been very proud of this touching tribute to him and his friends.
