One of the longest-running Broadway musicals of all time and the winner of the 1976 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Olivier Award for Best Musical, and Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Book, and Best Score—yes, all of them—A Chorus Line is a stunning musical-verite that brings to life a chorus audition for a Broadway musical. This motley ensemble of starving artists and would-be stars risks it all for a chance to take the stage and, in the process, wins our hearts. Now a musical theater legend, A Chorus Line is a powerful metaphor for all human aspiration, as well as a brilliantly complex fusion of dance, song and authentic drama — as relevant and compelling today as it was when it premiered thirty-five years ago.
