Mara Davi in Broadway revival of "A Chorus Line"

Posted: 2/3/06 at 5:51pm

I know this has already been mentioned in other threads, but I thought I would dedicate an entire thread just to her. She just got cast as Maggie in the revival of Chorus Line. I have seen this girl work up close, and she is a huge young talent. Keep your eyes peeled for her. You will be blown away by what she can do. She is also one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet. Extremely hard worker, and very dedicated to her craft. Any other Mara Davi fans out there?

I had the pleasure of working with her in the national tour of 42nd Street. She is so dedicated to her craft and very gracious. I am so happy to see her move so quickly to Broadway!

I whole heartedly agree. I couldn't think of a more deserving person. I fully expect she will become a regular to the New York stage. New York audiences will be lucky to have her. She is an amazing, classic song and dance girl.

C'mon folks, where's the Mara love? Anyone else know her, or seen her work? The posts are slow coming right now, but that will all change later this year.

I get to see her in SF this summer and in New York this fall. I am so excited to see her and Charlotte together with the great cast there is.

I LOVE MARA DAVI!!!

OH! I saw her back in her 42nd Street days!!
and she was so good, I went and saw her again two days later. She is quite talented, and rehally the sweetest person in the world. We kept in contact through e-mail for a while... but she got rather busy, and had to stop.

Congratulations to her! WOO!
that's a really big mic...

I did not get to see her in 42nd street, unfortunately. Everyone I have heard from says she was great, though. I don't see how she couldn't be. Just not possible.

I'm sure she's a talented chick, but it sounds like outside of her brief stint in 42ND STREET, she hasn't done much for people to actually comment on. Why don't you bring back this thread when she's actually performing in something...just sayin'...

Your right, she doesn't have a tone of credits. She's a fellow West Coaster though, so a lot of us out here have seen her and worked with her. Just a bit of West Coast pride. Anyway, I will definitey bump the thread when the show opens in San Fran and New York.

well... she's only 21, and was plucked out of college to do 42nd Street. But great things are soon to come of her.

She would have been the perfect replacement for Sutton in Millie. Even more suited than Millie, because, both Sutton, and Susan had quirks because of their personalities, while Mara, could truly portray the young, innocent, new girl... which is why she got 42nd Street... but Millie has a bit more meat as a character than the sparkly pretty alabaster one facet character of Peggy Sawyer... however, this stint as Maggie, could very well establish her as a Broadway star. We'll see great things from her.

Could she not also be an amazing Belle?
that's a really big mic...

Oh yeah, She would be absolutely amazing as Belle. I wouldn't be surprised to see her pop up in that show after her run in Chorus Line.

re: Mara Davi in Broadway revival of 'A Chorus Line'

This is what I wrote about Mara on March 21, 2005, on a thread I started.
"Finally, there is Mara Davi, a young actress/singer/dancer (still a student at UC Irvine) with real Broadway potential. She has “it”—a star quality that can’t be learned. As Natalie said after the show, “She IS Peggy Sawyer!” Singing, dancing, acting, charisma: all A+. If Mara plays her cards right, young girls could be idolizing her in the same way they do Sutton Foster."
I'm proud to say that I was the first to predict her success on this board almost a year ago.

I'm so glad to hear this! I went to CSUF with her for a year. I had classes with her and she TA'd my tap class and she was one of the nicest people. I'm glad she's going to get a chance to show everyone else what those of us at school already know - that she is extremely talented. This couldn't have happened to a better person. (Now I really have to get myself to NYC!)

I have known this wonderful talent for a little over a year and she is PHENOMINAL! I had the honor of dancing with the cast of 42nd Street in Melbourne, FL. I walked in and she said "come and tap with us!" So I did the opening number and then I went and saw the show after Nurtcracker rehearsal. I have kept up with her via email. She is the wonderful person everyone says she is. I can't wait to see her in this role. I know there will me MORE WONDERFUL THINGS TO COME! Anyone who doesn't know of her will know of her. Will there be something on the TONY's this year? Email me at Joey32907@yahoo.com with the information . . . thanks y'all - - Mara - - you are phenominal and a complete knockout. . . you have what it takes (times 5!)

Besides 42nd St., I also saw her in White Christmas in Boston, so she does have other credits!

Mara is Sacramento's hometown hero.

Here she is with Kelly Daniells after last Saturday's ACL performance. Kelly and Mara are long-time friends from Sacramento, having done several shows together in their high school years. Kelly now plays Sophie in Las Vegas production of Mamma Mia.

I met her once at a thing at Cal State Fullerton. She was so sweet, and I am pretty sure that she worked a disneyland for a while with my other friend.

Was she Peggy in the tour that was in the just closed tour? Bec ause I thought that was her. She is one of A Chorus Line's best singers.
