I will be in NYC on Friday, October 27, and I wanted to know which one (of the two) I should see: Grey Gardens or A Chorus Line?
Thanks.

Grey Gardens
Saw original ACL & no desire to see this. Would rather see something new

I haven't seen either, but I'm more familiar with the story and music of ACL. Therefore, I'd prefer to see GG. I've seen the film, but I don't know much about the musical. I hope that helps.

Grey Gardens - not sure how long it will be around, and no doubt Chorus Line will tour.

GREY GARDENS if only for Ebersole. ACL will always be done somewhere.. GREY GARDENS is your chance to see the orginal Broadway Cast of a show that - even if it is not a success - will inspire curiosity for years to come.
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart; and you'll never walk alone.

I personally love the Line a whole lot, its one of my alltime favorites, but I'd go with GG- Ebersole is supposed to be fantastic. and i saw her performance on the drama desks, FAB. but definitely look into ACL too if you have time! its sooo good!
you may know what you need but to get what you want better see that you keep what you have

Without a doubt, Grey Gardens. If for no other reason than you can say you saw Ebersole's performance, which is sure to be legendary (if it is not already).

I hear Christine's performance is up there with Laurette Taylor's in THE GLASS MENAGERIE, something which I wish I'd been privy (not to mention, old enough) to see.

ACL.
"Grey Gardens," while it does have a terrific performance by Ebersole, is a rather disappointing evening in the theatre.

Hey, I'm just saying.
The correct response to this question is BOTH. But if you have to choose, I'm saying ACL.

There really isn't anything "must see" about this production of ACL; it's really just a solid regional theatre remounting of the show. If you miss Ebersole, you'll regret it.

ACL... But Christine Ebersol is AMAZING (Haven't heard/seen GREY GARDENS yet, though

I would have to say Grey Gardens. I just turned off that cd five min. ago and I love it. I really think it will be a wonderful evening.
