That cast list reminds me just how weird the movie can get. I remembered Prince as "The Kid," but forgot that Wendy and Lisa, Apollonia and Morris Day were all playing real-but-fictionalized versions of themselves.

Lots of newbies that'll make their Broadway debuts 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.

Kevin are you seeing this? It looks so good and the brilliant man who was cast as Prince looks and sounds just like him, it's extraordinary. Please post a review!

I noticed on the cast list that they added an alternate for "The Kid" - Jason Korn.
