Seventeen hopeful dancers, eight spots, one dream - A Chorus Line spotlights the journeys and theatre ambitions of contesting dancers, which are revealed as they audition for a sought-after place on the chorus line of a Broadway show. 

They have survived the first round of auditions, but there are only eight spots in the chorus line.

As the show's choreographer critiques the dancers' auditions from a seat in the audience he intermittently probes them to reveal their past, who they are and what has led them to audition for a place in the chorus line.

From this, the plot delves into the hearts and minds of the 17 dancers, who through both moving and hilarious, theatrical monologues and songs, each reveal the experiences which have led them to a life in show business.

With a cast of 34, a backstage team of 28, production team of 14 and a 16-piece orchestra, running the College musical is no easy feat. 

Work on the musical began last year in October, entailing organising rights to the show, auditions, rehearsals, fundraisers, a theatre, costuming, set, lighting and sound.

‘It has been truly incredible to watch A Chorus Line come alive, seeing this mere thought turn into a reality, from auditions to rehearsals, into production week and finally up on stage on opening night,’ producer, Simone Nathan (3^rd year Arts) said.

‘The last eight months of preparing this musical have been so special, thank you so much for coming to watch our show!’

One of the longest running Broadway shows, A Chorus Line first opened on Broadway in 1975. 91ÖÆƬ³§¹ú²úAV Music Theatre Society has no doubt done writers of A Chorus Line proud.
