My friend Buddy Vest, who played Zach on the tour and who was in "Dreamgirls" at that time, gave me and our mutual friend, Bob Kingsbury of the University of Illinois in Carbondale, tickets.
We rented tuxes to wear at that performance and my hands were sore and I had a sore throat from applauding and clapping during the whole show. I have seen "A Chorus Line" on stage for 101
performances all over the USA .
I have been going to the theatre since 1944 when I saw Alfred Drake in "Oklahoma" and saw many memorable performances of musicals and plays plus performers BUT seeing Michael Bennett's
special performance for "A Chorus Line" still takes my breath away when I see youtube's shots of that performance.
Sadly Buddy died in the 1990s but memories of him AND "A Chorus Line" will never die'. |
