A Chorus Line
It is one of the most successful Broadway musicals of all time: A Chorus Line.
The musical tells the story of an audition that demands everything from hopeful applicants. For a new Broadway show, there are eight ensemble roles to be filled. Choreographer Zach is not only looking for great dancers but also requires the talents to expose their inner selves. Gradually, the protagonists reveal their life stories, sometimes defiantly, sometimes using humor as a shield, and then brutally honest, which makes it all the more moving. The big themes come to life on stage: love, sex, and the question of who am I and where do I belong in this world? This is what makes the musical, which was filmed in 1985 starring Michael Douglas, so timeless - as every member of the audience, faced with the diversity of emotions presented, may eventually feel tempted to say 'Oh yes, I know that feeling'. The ideal framework for the multifaceted plot is the (almost) impossible love story between Zach and Cassie. It's no wonder that "A Chorus Line," after its premiere in 1975, broke the record for the longest-running musical in New York.
