“One of those musicals you’ll sing about to your grandchildren,” wrote New York Times reviewer Clive Barnes, about A Chorus Line, which closes Short North Stage’s 2014-15 season. “An occasion of joy,” he continued, “an affirmation of Broadway, and a smoke-signal to the world that the musical can touch unexpected depths of the human heart.” Forty years to the month after this path-breaking musical opened at the Public Theater in New York, prior to its 6,137-performance Broadway run, Short North Stage celebrates one of the greatest musicals ever to hit Broadway.  A Chorus Line tells the stories of 17 dancers who are auditioning for eight jobs in the chorus of a new musical, providing a glimpse into the personalities of the performers and the choreographer as they describe their journeys in the theater.
