Originally conceived by Michael Bennett with music by Marvin Hamlisch, lyrics by Edward Kleban and a book by James Kirkwood, Jr. and Nicholas Dante, A Chorus Line opened on Broadway at the Shubert Theatre on July 25,1975. Directed by Bennett and co-choreographed by Bennett and Bob Avian, the musical quickly became an unprecedented and critical hit.

The evening will be directed by Baayork Lee, who will also remount the original Michael Bennett and Bob Avian choreography. With unforgettable music, iconic choreography and a celebratory spirit, this once in a lifetime night benefits the Entertainment Community Fund and promises to be nothing short of spectacular.

*Cast Subject to Change

The Entertainment Community Fund recognizes that dancers often encounter unique situations as a consequence of the physically demanding nature of their work, coupled with the significant financial challenges of earning a living in dance. Dancers also face transition for a range of reasons, such as injury, age and/or life events. Career Transition For Dancers offers career counseling, educational scholarships and panel discussions to assist dancers in navigating changes and expanding new opportunities for the future. The Dancers’ Resource, founded by Bebe Neuwirth, helps dancers access financial assistance and manage their mental health through individual and group activities.
