‘A Chorus Line’ Is Here
Center Stage at the Southampton Cultural Center will begin a three-week run of “A Chorus Line” tonight at 7:30. The Pulitzer Prize-winning musical, conceived and choreographed by Michael Bennett, opened on Broadway in 1975 and ran for more than 6,000 performances. Set at an audition, the show celebrates the ambitions and disappointments of background dancers who perform in the shadow of a production’s stars.
Michael Disher, Center Stage’s director, has recreated the original choreography. Tickets are $25, $12 for students under 21 with identification, and $23 for senior citizens on Fridays only. Performances will take place Thursdays at 7:30 p.m., Fridays and Saturdays at 8, and Sundays at 2:30 through March 22. Dinner-and-theater packages will also be available. More information can be found at scc-arts.org.
The cultural center has also announced the installation of elevated theater seating, which should provide better sight lines and allow for expanded programming.
