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 is directed by its original Tony Award winning co-choreographer
Bob Avian and is produced by
John F. Breglio for
Vienna Waits Productions.
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.
A CHORUS LINE, conceived and originally choreographed and directed by
Michael Bennett, features a book by
James Kirkwood and
Nicholas Dante, music by
Marvin Hamlisch and lyrics by
Edward Kleban. For this new production,
Baayork Lee re-stages the original choreography.
The new production features scenery by
Robin Wagner, costumes by
Theoni V. Aldredge, lighting by
Tharon Musser adapted by
Natasha Katz and sound by
Acme Sound Partners. Musical supervision is by
Patrick Vaccariello with musical direction by John C. O'Neill, orchestrations are by
Jonathan Tunick,

Don Pippin. The new 2006 Broadway cast recording of A CHORUS LINE was released by Masterworks Broadway and is available in stores nationwide.
The original production of A CHORUS LINE opened at the Public Theater's Newman Theatre on May 21, 1975 and transferred to Broadway's Shubert Theatre on July 25th, opening there on October 19th of that year. It won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Score and Book, and the New York Drama Critics Circle Award. It ran for nearly 15 years, closing on April 28, 1990 after 6,137 performances. A CHORUS LINE remains the longest-running American musical in Broadway history.
