“One Singular Sensation!”
When planning each season at West Valley Arts, we ask ourselves the same question:
What stories need to be told right now—right here, on the west side?
This year, A Chorus Line was an easy answer.
More than just a beloved classic, A Chorus Line is a deeply human story about ambition, vulnerability, and the relentless pursuit of a dream. It’s a show that strips away the glitz and glamour of show business and takes us into the hearts of the performers who make the magic happen.
For a theatre like ours—powered by local artists, dedicated crews, and a community that shows up for the arts—this show feels incredibly personal.
A Love Letter to the People Who Make Theatre
At its core, A Chorus Line is about the people who stand in the background and keep coming back, audition after audition, because performing isn’t just what they do—it’s who they are.
We see that same passion every day at West Valley Arts. We see it in the actors who rehearse after long workdays. In the designers who pour their creativity into every costume and set. And in the crews who stay late to make sure the show runs smoothly.
This production is our way of shining a spotlight on the dedication it takes to bring live theatre to life—and celebrating the people who make it happen.
Still Relevant. Still Real.
Though it premiered nearly 50 years ago, A Chorus Line feels as timely as ever. It's about finding stability in an unstable industry. It's about chasing a dream even when the odds aren’t in your favor. And it's about what it takes to keep showing up, time after time.
In a moment where the arts face economic uncertainty and rising costs—from tariffs on materials to cautious donors wary of the financial climate—this show reminds us why the work matters. Why the people matter. And why our community deserves access to world-class theatre, right here on the west side.
For the West Side
We chose A Chorus Line because we believe in sharing extraordinary stories with our audiences—stories that make you laugh, cry, and see the world (and each other) a little differently.
This is more than a show. It’s an experience about resilience, passion, and the shared humanity of people who just want a chance to do what they love. We hope you'll join us this season to celebrate not only the magic onstage but the spirit behind it.
