Live Production Analysis - Chorus Line
The play written by Michael Bennett , The Chorus Line, was phenomenal!

However, I respect that the actors tried the best of their capacity to end the scene smoothly.
In summary, the play was a tremendous example of the high level high school actors can reach. Each and every member of the cast did the best of their ability to ensure their voice was clear, and their emotions were believable. This play was very captivating and kept me interested the whole time. Chorus Line has truly impressed me since in my opinion, the Stockdale Mustangs were closely up to par to those plays in Broadway! I absolutely would recommend others to watch this play because it provides a lot of entertainment and valuable insight on the lives of
