A Chorus Line Conceived and Originally Directed and Choreographed by Michael Bennett Book by James Kirkwood and Nicholas Dante Music by Marvin Hamlisch Lyrics by Edward Kleban Co Choreographed by Bob Avian Original Broadway production produced by the New York Shakespeare Festival, Joseph Papp, Producer. Theatre is?a dream! 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. A Chorus Line is also about competition, and competition might easily be the common denominator that grabs the audience and holds it by the collective heartstrings until the final, ultimate choices are made. For everyone, at one time or another, puts their life on the line ? for attention, for approval ? and for love. Specifically, A Chorus Line takes the audience through the final grueling audition run by the director, Zach, for a new Broadway musical. Memorable musical numbers include ?What I Did for Love, ?One,? ?I Can Do That,? ?At the Ballet,? ?The Music and the Mirror,? and ?I Hope I Get It.?
