CHARLOTTE, NC – The new production of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning musical A CHORUS LINE opens Tuesday at the Belk Theater in Charlotte for a limited one-week engagement through Oct. 4, 2009. Tickets are on sale now at the Belk Theater box office, by phone at 704-372-1000 or online at BlumenthalCenter.org. Group orders for 15 or more may be placed by calling 704-379-1380.

A CHORUS LINE reclaimed its place in the heart of Broadway at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre (236 W 45th St) where it opened to rave reviews on October 5, 2006. Elysa Gardner of USA Today calls it “Exhilarating and endearing, it still has a freshness and fervency too seldom seen in contemporary musicals,” while The New York Daily News exclaims “There’s nothing better! The show thrills from the opening number to the glittering finale,” and Jeffrey Lyons of WNBC TV hails it “An American Masterpiece. A show for the ages.” A CHORUS LINE is directed by its original Tony Award winning co-choreographer Bob Avian and is produced by John F. Breglio for Vienna Waits Productions.

A CHORUS LINE recouped its entire $8 million investment after only 157 performances (19 weeks) on Broadway. It broke the theatre’s box office record 7 times in its first 5 months. A CHORUS LINE ended its Broadway run on August 17, 2008 after 18 preview and 759 regular performances.
