A Chorus Line

Wed 2nd – Sat 5th September, 2026
Putney Arts Theatre

We invite you into the raw, electric moment when seventeen hopefuls are called to audition for the coveted spot in a new musical’s chorus. From the nervous tremor of “I Hope I Get It” to the soaring unity of “One,” the show captures the triumphs and heartbreaks that define every artist’s journey.

The musical celebrates the courage it takes to step into the spotlight, even if only for a fleeting moment. It’s a tribute to the dreamers who keep Broadway alive, reminding us that every dancer’s story matters – no matter how brief the role.
