Posted: 4/27/06 at 11:40amGood luck finding one! They have been created for the show for years. You may run across one from when they were actually sold back in the day but they are very rare indeed.

...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

Posted: 4/27/06 at 11:44amUgh! But while we're on the subject - where did Anthony Rapp get that pink t-shirt with a star on the chest? I think he wore it on the today show appearance. I like that shirt.

Here's another one for the "You know you're getting old when..." lists.
You know you're getting old when the original A CHORUS LINE costumes look like period dress -- and you can remember when everyone dressed that way.
But be that as it may, so glad to see this show come back. And it even has Ken Alan and Michael Berresse...two of my favorite male dancers.

I saw Mara in ACL as Cassie at Cal State Fullerton.

Posted: 4/27/06 at 2:24pmI can't believe they are going so far as to costume Bobby with the scarf. They could have ditched that while staying true to the period.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Posted: 4/27/06 at 2:34pmLooking forward to this! I admit, I've never seen the show, but love the music and the concept. As most others have said, the cast looks great, very enthusiastic.

Chyssie Whitehead!
I've taken quite a few master classes from her...genuinely great girl, and really funny.
Oh, and the show opens the day after my birthday!

Posted: 4/27/06 at 11:24pmI don't know much about ACL, but this looks like a show that I could really get into. I love the song "One". And the video of the cast makes them seem really excited to be a part of it. I can't wait to see what happens in the fall!

Posted: 4/28/06 at 1:27pmMost of the poses are slightly different, Bob Avian didn't want the exact same ones.

Posted: 4/28/06 at 1:33pm
I would call those poses "minimally" different at the very most...
Those poses supposedly came organically out of the way the original cast stood. Bob Avian should do something similar.
#24re: Photo Coverage: First Look at the 2006 Cast of A Chorus Line
Posted: 4/28/06 at 2:13pmI agree but if we are supposedly trying to do a complete re-creation of the original, as most productions of ACL are done they should have to stand the same way as the OBC and every other company has done. I always felt lucky that I at least got one of the comfortable poses. I always felt sorry for Diana as that pose is hard to hold. I just find all the little changes odd. Either re-create the original completely or re-visit and create new stuff for the revival.
