Synopsis: It tells of the achingly poignant ambitions of professional Broadway gypsies to land a job in the show, and is a powerful metaphor for all human aspiration. Memorable musical numbers include "I Can Do That," "At the Ballet," and "Dance: Ten." Big League Productions' "A Chorus Line" will feature the Tony Award-winning direction and choreography of Michael Bennett. It was the recipient of the Pulitzer Prize and nine Tony awards including Best Musical.
