Cast members of the national touring company of A CHORUS LINE share their experiences on growing up as individuals who were sometimes considered "different," and how things really do get better. Conceived by Paul Flanagan and Rachel Schur. Shot and edited by Jack Stephens.

A CHORUS LINE reclaimed its place in the heart of Broadway at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre (236 W 45th St) where it opened to rave reviews on October 5, 2006. Elysa Gardner of USA Today calls it "Exhilarating and endearing, it still has a freshness and fervency too seldom seen in contemporary musicals," while The New York Daily News exclaims "There's nothing better! The show thrills from the opening number to the glittering finale," and Jeffrey Lyons of WNBC TV hails it "An American Masterpiece. A show for the ages." A CHORUS LINE was directed by its original Tony Award winning co-choreographer Bob Avian. For this new production, Baayork Lee will direct and re-stage the choreography.

A CHORUS LINE recouped its entire $8 million investment after only 157 performances (19 weeks) on Broadway. It broke the theatre's box office record 7 times in its first 5 months. A CHORUS LINE ended its Broadway run on August 17, 2008 after 18 preview and 759 regular performances.
