I was disappointed with the Chorus Line. I expected more singing and dancing instead of boring talk. The only scenes I liked was the first and the last. Too bad because I was really looking forward to this musical.
The singing and dancing were great. It did get a bit lengthy in the middle and at times was difficult to understand
Many, many years ago I went to see A Chorus Line on stage with my Mom. Ever since, that has always been my favorite "Broadway Show" - although I've never been to Broadway. I was so excited when I heard it was showing in Milwaukee. However, this time it fell short of my memories. It just didn't have the pizzazz I remembered. From now on I'll only be watching the DVD version - live just didn't do it for me. Very sad.
This is about the 5th time I've seen A Chorus Line in various places. It was just as good as ever. I took two friends who had not seen it and they were blown away.
Great deal-great theatre-great show! Thanks for bringing it to Cincinnati.
The kids in the show were remarkable singers and dancers. The choreography was fabulous and the show moved at an excellent pace. It was thoroughly enjoyable!
The show A Chorus Line was outstanding. I felt like I held my breath through the whole thing. I saw the live musical in the 1980's. And this time time my daughters, who are in dance and musical theater got to see it too. The dancing, the singing, and the acting were all incredible!! We wanted more.
I loved it. Chorus line has been around for awhile but these talented people in this show were truly amazing! They were outstanding and they totally got their part. This was such a believable, well done show. I'm glad I didn't miss this one!! It was such an entertaining show and kudos to all involved!
I had been waiting so long to see it and it was worth the wait!
The tunes are still some of Broadway's best and the choreography some of Broadway's finest, but this touring production of "A Chorus Line" falls short with some of the show's major roles. I saw the show twice on Broadway, the original production. The roles of Cassie, Diana Morales, and Zach are key roles, and these 3 were not even close to the caliber one expects from a Broadway touring production. Donna McKechnie set the bar high, but this Cassie looks as though she can't reach the bar....weak portrayal. This company's Zach was totally lifeless, bland, lacking affect. And Diana Morales was about as un-Puerto Rican as you can get; acting class can teach anyone how to portray a tough little Puerto Rican from the Bronx...this girl spoke and sang like she came from Ohio. The cast as a whole delivers the dance numbers well, and the roles of "Paul" and "Mike" were well acted.
Loved the play! The singing and acting was absolutely wonderful!
Have been wanting to see it for years and waiting for it to come to Milwaukee. The show was amazing. I've seen many musicals at Uhlien hall, but this has to be one of my favorites ever. Main characters were great!
Excellent with the exception of the "updated language"...no need for that and young people get enough of bad language.
We enjoyed the show, though there were some uncomfortable moments since I had invited my mom, who is quite conservative. There was some language as well as some themes that we could have done without!
The actors/dancers were talented and danced well. The music was played too fast and the songs that should have been show stoppers were not. The singers struggled to get all the words to their songs out. They sounded rushed.
The storyline is shallow with so many different characters the audience never gets hooked into the plot. If you have to go take a pillow for better sleeping during the show.
My seat was in Balcony and was in the highest ticket cost bracket. I could not understand most of the characters verbiage. So obviously understanding each characters back ground was critical to the play - well it was the play. The music drowned out the words. I was able to pick up bits and pieces - enough to get the jest of the story. But I wasn't there to get bits and pieces. I am not hard of hearing I am 40ish and felt like the Orpheum's sound was overbearing.
I had seen the show before at Chanhassen and also the movie, but this was much better. The seats were amazing, the talent was amazing. A must see for everyone, yes, that means the men too! It's one you would regret not seeing. I still wake up every morning with a different song in my head from the show!
Maybe it is because I have seen the movie 100 times, but the play did not even come close to my expectations. The singing was bad, the dancing was boring and the acting was hard to bare at some times. Some parts were SO long. Especially Paul's speech. It was so hard watching a guy named Bryan Knowlton try and do a Puerto Rican accent for what seemed to be an hour. The whole play was just boring.
The story is fun and a joy to watch. The dancing was drop jaw amazing. My only criticizm was the sound. The lyrics to many of the songs were drowned out by the big band. The syncronized dance numbers blew me away.
