A Chorus Line is a stunning concept musical capturing the spirit and tension of a Broadway ensemble audition. Exploring the inner lives and bittersweet ambitions of professional Broadway performers, the show features one powerhouse number after another. Memorable musical numbers include "What I Did for Love, "One," "I Can Do That," "At the Ballet," "The Music and the Mirror," and "I Hope I Get It." A brilliantly complex fusion of song, dance, and compellingly authentic drama, A Chorus Line is instantly recognized as a classic.

MISCAST CABARET! Valley Student Theatre
Miscast Cabaret is like Broadway’s rebellious little sibling, shaking things up by putting performers into roles they’d never land in real life. It’s a show where the rules of casting get tossed out the window, leading to a night of musical mayhem that’s equal parts hilarious, touching, and unexpected.
Imagine your favorite show tunes, but with a twist: think of the fierce “Cell Block Tango” from
Chicago belted out by an all-male cast, or picture a woman crooning “If I Only Had a Brain” from The Wizard of Oz. These quirky, flipped-the-script performances are what make Miscast Cabaret so entertaining and fresh.
But don’t be fooled into thinking it’s all about gender swaps—Miscast Cabaret is an open invitation to break all the casting rules. Whether it’s age, type, or just pure imagination, this show lets performers explore roles they wouldn’t normally touch, creating a one-of-a-kind experience where anything can happen. If you thought you knew Broadway, think again—Miscast Cabaret is here to surprise and delight! (from their Facebook)
