Didn't see a thread on this yet but caught a performance of it this past weekend and loved it! It's a production done in association with American Dance Machine, so recreations of a lot of iconic choreography, and as someone who is on the younger side of being a theater fan, it was a total treat to see so many of these dances be brought to life in person, especially in such an intimate theater where you're so close to the action.
My friend and I mentioned how we both got strangely emotional at All I Need is the Girl, which wasn't really a song we expected that to happen at all (Jess Leprotto is also just a winning performer). But it was wonderful to see things like Mr. Monotony (which I'd never heard of) and One (which I had somehow never seen in full). Would definitely recommend checking out for anyone that's interested in dance!

Looking forward to this. Jess is so great - does he get any other showcases? Thanks

Considering what a let down this season is for new musicals, I wonder if there's a chance this tries to come to Broadway for a limited run in the Spring?
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

He's also highlighted in Broadway Melody and Moses Supposes, as well as a few ensemble bits (there's a bit of a featured singing moment in Sing Sing Sing as well, the Swing version, not the Fosse version).

Oh thank you for starting this thread and reminding me about Gotta Dance. Just purchased my tickets. I saw Randy Skinner’s Cheek to Cheek at York and just loved it. His Dames at Sea is one of my all time favorites. Just what I need.
