A Few Words... “A Chorus Line” is a celebration of those unsung heroes of the American Musical Theatre - the chorus dancers, those valiant, over dedicated, underpaid, highly trained performers who back up the star or stars and often make them look even more talented than they are. It is also a celebration of the American Musical itself, our country’s unique gift to the world. It’s also about competition and competition might easily be the common denominator that grabs the audience and holds it by the collective heartstring until the final, ultimate choices are made. For everyone, at one time or another, puts his life on the line. We all compete, no matter what business we’re in, for promotion, for attention, for approval and for love. “A Chorus Line” departs from the usual glossy backstage musical by presenting a true picture of what it’s like to be in the theatre; glamorous - yes, at times, but also tough, heartbreaking and sometimes even tragic, in the case of Paul, who is knocked out of the competition by an injury sustained during a dance number. These brave dancers explain why they go through a life filled with rejection and injury. Our cast has taken up the challenge of “A Chorus Line” with great enthusiasm and courage. Matt Larson, who joined us late in the rehearsal schedule, has shown the true grit it takes to learn new skills, taking on a role he never thought he could handle, much less audition for.
