CPCC Summer Theatre to Perform A CHORUS LINE

CPCC Summer Theatre is pleased to bring "A Chorus Line" (PG 13) to the Halton Theater stage for the first time as part of its 2017 theatre season.

"A Chorus Line," featuring music by Marvin Hamlisch and lyrics by Edward Kleban, is a celebration of those unsung heroes of the American musical theatre: the chorus dancers. But it's also about competition. We all compete, no matter what business we're in - whether it's for a promotion, attention, approval and love.

"A Chorus Line" departs from the usual glossy backstage musical by presenting a true picture of what it's like to be in the theatre. It's glamorous at times, but also tough, heartbreaking and sometimes even tragic.

Audiences won't want to miss this classic musical, filled with show-stopping songs, such as "One" and "What I Did for Love" and astonishing choreography. Don't miss this opportunity to support local theatre; reserve your seat today!
