Description Conceived and originally directed by Michael Bennett, A Chorus Line ripped down the curtain to reveal the struggles of Broadway performers to be seen, heard, recognised and respected. Our dynamic production, twice postponed by COVID-19, features bold new choreography by director Amy Campbell and musical direction by Damon Wade, with musical supervision by Andrew Worboys.

During a gruelling musical theatre audition, desperation will open the door to exploitation, and racism and sexism are rife. Featuring the music of Marvin Hamlisch and based on interviews with real dancers, A Chorus Line shows what it means to put everything on the line.
