A Chorus Line

A Chorus Line is one such musical where the plot glides around seventeen Broadway dancers auditioning for spots on a chorus line. With nineteen main characters, it is set on the bare stage of a Broadway theatre.
The dancers later move on to the next stage of audition: to learn a song, but Cassie stays onstage to talk to Zach. She is a veteran gypsy with notable successes as a soloist. Zach had the history of casting her in a featured part previously, and they had lived together for several years. Zach tells Cassie that she is too good for the chorus and shouldn’t be at this audition but she intended to express her passion for dance.

Cassie and Zach’s complex relationship resurfaces during a run-through of the number created to showcase an un-named star (“One”). Zach confronts Cassie, feeling that she is “dancing down,” and they rehash what went wrong in their relationship and her career. Eventually the final eight dancers are selected: Cassie, Bobby, Diana, Judy, Val, Mike, Mark and Richie.

“One” begins with an individual bow for each of the 19 characters, their hodgepodge rehearsal clothes replaced by identical spangled gold costumes. As each dancer joins the group, it is suddenly difficult to distinguish one from the other; ironically, each character who was an individual to the audience is now an anonymous member of an ensemble. The musical was formed from several taped workshop sessions with Broadway dancers, known as “gypsies,” including eight who eventually appeared in the original cast.

A Chorus Line opened off-Broadway at The Public Theater on May 21, 1975. The show was directed and co-choreographed (with Bob Avian) by Michael Bennett.
