Synopsis:
A Chorus Line is a play about an "audition" that takes place in real time. A large group of dancers is whittled down to the final 16 by Zach (choreographer) and assisted by Larry (dance captain). Each dancer is asked to reveal something personal by the choreographer and do so through songs and monologues. Note: Mature language and content.
