Royal City Musical Theatre’s artistic director Lloyd Nicholson is pleased to announce that the company’s 20th anniversary 2009 production will be that ultimate tribute to the talented young dancers whose talent brings musical theatre alive, A Chorus Line.
“How better to celebrate our 20th anniversary than with a show saluting the men and women who make theatre what it is?” said Mr. Nicholson in making the announcement. “For two unforgettable hours, we get to know and care about 18 working dancers as they strive for a job in a chorus line. Sharing their dread of rejection and their desperation to succeed, we want to root for them all. Yet we know as they do that half of them must fail, and even the winners face the absurdity of the dancers’ life: surrendering their uniqueness for the unison of the chorus, the anonymity of the line.”
A Chorus Line will run April 9 through 25, 2009 at New Westminster’s Massey Theatre. Click here for ticket info.
