“A Chorus Line” is a musical about a chorus audition for a Broadway musical. It tells of the achingly poignant ambitions of professional Broadway gypsies to land a job in the show. Memorable musical numbers include “I Can Do That,” “The Music and the Mirror,” “What I Did for Love,” “One (Singular Sensation)” and “I Hope I Get It.” It is a complex fusion of dance, song and compellingly authentic drama. This show is rated PG-13.

At the Ridge Theatre was established in 2001 to provide quality musical theatre experiences and art education to the community. ART was designed to function as a collaborative effort between educators, students, families, theatre supporters, local business and civic groups.

The company’s primary partner is the Kent School District, which provides the use of the Kentridge Performing Arts Center for the summer program.
