Tights, leg-warmers, mirrors, sweat, and dreams -- does any musical capture the joy and heartbreak of the American drive for success better than A Chorus Line? As the final production in its stellar second season of summer musicals, Hathaway Brown Theatre Institute will treat audiences to this dance musical masterpiece for six electrifying performances, from August 1-10.
A Chorus Line is the ultimate celebration of the American musical. Audiences will share in the story of 17 dancers competing for eight coveted spots in the chorus of a Broadway show. Through the audition process, they bare their souls while sharing stories of their childhoods, ambitions, fears, and experiences in show business. One of the longest-running musicals in Broadway history, this groundbreaking Pulitzer, Tony and Drama Desk-winner is for anyone who has ever put it all on the line.
