Tracy Notes About This Show

The costumes for the "gold line" at the end of the show, when those chosen are finally in costume, appear mostly gold because of the warm coloring of the lighting; costumes are actually a creamy off-white satin with gold trim, and constructed to go on quickly as required by the show.

Plot Synopsis

A series of vignettes as 18 applicants vie for places in an eight-member chorus line. Goaded by a sadistic director named Zach, each applicant in turn reveals truths that supposedly will help the director make his final choice.

And by the way...

The answer to our very most frequently asked question is - NO!!!

The question is: Do you have a minimum order or do we have to rent a whole show?

We believe you should be able to order one hat, two props, an entire show, or anything in between - it's one of your basic theatrical freedoms.
