“Blood, sweat and tears don’t date,” says director and choreographer Amy Campbell, who will be bringing to life at Darlinghurst Theatre Company, a thrilling reimagining of one of the most iconic dance spectacles of our time – A Chorus Line.

This iconic dance musical was ground-breaking when it premiered in 1975. It will be the first time that a professional Australian production of the show features entirely new choreography. Campbell has rethought the piece to reflect the dance-styles and life of the artist in the 21st Century.

Set on the bare stage of a Broadway theatre, A Chorus Line centres on 17 dancers who are desperately auditioning for eight chorus roles in a musical. The show unfolds through a series of vignettes, giving us a glimpse into the personalities of the people auditioning, revealing the life experiences that propelled them to become dancers, along with their hopes, fears, insecurities and frustrations. The show famously ends with an epic kick line as they don glitzy costumes, having previously worn rehearsal gear.
