Since theaters shut down this spring, a certain type of performance has gained traction online – the compilation video, in which multiple performers, each in their own space, record their part of a musical number that is compiled into one cohesive performance. One of those compilation videos that has been widely circulated features the Broadway revival cast of “A Chorus Line” doing the famous opening dance number. I reached out to Jeffrey "Shecky" Schecter, who starred in that production and who had the idea to reunite his cast for this compilation. We discussed how artists are connecting with each other during quarantine and how they find outlets for their creativity when theater is dark. Here is a link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pALsCSZmWY See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
