Review: A CHORUS LINE at Barrington Stage Company

Review: A CHORUS LINE at Barrington Stage Company

by Marc Savitt · July 22, 2026

The musical numbers overall are so well executed it would be unfair to single out any over the rest. One could almost see the high-quality performance throughout this production as an issue.
