Often billed as a comedy, this play contains a wealth of witty dialogue, but is, at its heart, a poignant exploration of the resilience of these women and their relationships with one another. HLT has created a touching, beautiful production.

Review: A CHORUS LINE at Downtown Cabaret Theatre

There is no denying the extreme talent of the A CHORUS LINE cast. Director Brad Blake, choreographer Diana Deaver, music director Mark Ceppetelli, and assistant director Steve Belli combine their talents to help bring out the best in this first-rate ensemble cast! The hard work and dedication of all people involved is evident, with the entire cast bringing their A game to this show! They all have excellent stage chemistry with each other, a strong stage presence, and clearly enjoy performing. The synchronicity in dancing is breathtaking, enhanced by the impact of real mirrors as the back stage wall, creating the illusion of twice the dancers being on stage.
