“The ensemble showcased a wide range of talents, creating numerous memorable moments throughout the evening”

First of all, a big round of applause to HEA Productions for their bold choice to stage A Chorus Line! Tackling such an iconic and large-scale production, with its sizeable ensemble cast and intricate choreography, is no easy feat—and they pulled it off with style. Bravo!
I attended the opening night and was thoroughly impressed. As with any premiere, there were a few initial jitters and minor technical glitches, but once the cast found their rhythm after the first two numbers, the performance hit its stride beautifully. The ensemble showcased a wide range of talents, creating numerous memorable moments throughout the evening. I went from laughing out loud to feeling a lump in my throat. It truly was a powerful experience.
One of the standout scenes was the heartfelt exchange between Paul and Zach, a moment that clearly moved many in the audience. I suspect I wasn’t the only one with tears in my eyes—it was an exceptional and deeply emotional performance.

I have seen the show done by the US National Tour cast. For the money I've paid, I think HEA Production's A Chorus Line is a better value! It is definitely something I would recommend any musical fan to go see.
“We might have only been in a small theater but I felt like I was in Broadway with all The lights and sparkles.”

Having seen the movie as a child, I really enjoyed the diversity of the casts, each member portrayed their character with their own talent. I laughed, sang and did not want the show to end. I felt completely immersed in the auditions and felt like part of the cast. We might have only been in a small theater but I felt like I was in Broadway with all the lights and sparkles. Another outstanding production from Happily Ever After, looking forward to the next production!
