Get Ready for a Kick Line! 129 Rockette Alumni to Visit Off-Broadway's KICK This Month

Get ready for the kick line! On Sunday, November 22nd, 129 former Rockettes will attend the evening performance of KICK at St. Luke's Theatre (308 West 46th Street, NYC).

KICK, a darkly comic solo play written and performed by Joanna Rush and directed by Tony Award nominee Lynne Taylor-Corbett, opened on Sunday, October 25th for an open-ended off-Broadway engagement.

On her way to her first big New York audition, dancer Bernie O'Connell is tricked into a car and attacked in a vacant lot off the Brooklyn Queens Expressway. KICK follows Bernie from kickline to A Chorus Line to Hollywood and back as she picks up the pieces and finds the glue to put herself back together.

Joanna Rush said: 'I am absolutely thrilled that 129 of my Rockette sisters will be coming to see my show KICK on November 22nd as my experience as a Rockette is a vital part of my story. They will be in town as part of the Rockette Alumnae Association's 90th Anniversary Celebration. I look forward to catching up and sharing a few kicks with them after the performance."

KICK, a darkly comic play, written and performed by Joanna Rush, directed by Lynne Taylor-Corbett, opened Sunday, October 25th at 7 PM at St. Luke's Theatre, 308 West 46th Street, west of 8th Avenue, NYC.
