THE MULTI-AWARD WINNING MUSICAL HITS ST PAUL!

Invigorating, touching and spectacular, A Chorus Line tells the perennial tale of aspirations and fears of 17 auditioning dancers, and exposes both the dazzling and dark sides of showbiz. This iconic musical masterpiece has won nine Tony Awards, seven Drama Desk Awards, the New York Critics’ Circle Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and will be presented especially for the St Paul audience.

What is it about?

When 23 hopefuls vie for only eight places, A Chorus Line tells the story of a group of dancers auditioning to be part of a Broadway dance show. The first group is whittled down dancer by dancer, to 17 then to eight, by the jaded and fierce casting director, Zach. As each dancer step forward out of the shadows to audition, they each share their personal story honestly and openly, revealing their hopes, dreams and vulnerabilities, and why this show will change their life.

Amidst the overly confident wannabes softer characters emerge; a young woman who moved to dance as a means to escape the violence at home and a man struggles with his homosexuality. Some sweet, some sour, they all struggle for their once-in-a-lifetime chance to dance on the big stages.
