A Chorus Line

"One singular sensation!"

DramaMusic

A group of dancers congregate on the stage of a Broadway theatre to audition for a new musical production directed by Zach.

She is desperate enough for work to humble herself and audition for him; whether he's willing to let professionalism overcome his personal feelings about their past remains to be seen.
