One of the longest running shows in Broadway history, A Chorus Line closed after 15 years, winning every award in the industry and earning more than $300 million in North America, as well as the hearts of millions of fans worldwide. Flash forward to 2006 when the revival touched off a firestorm of intrigue once again. Directors James D. Stern and Adam Del Deo delve into the lives of dancers and singers auditioning for that one elusive chance at Broadway fame. "Capturing both the cruelty and the marvelousness of life in the theater," (NY Times) Every Little Step highlights a riveting behind-the-scenes drama as the revival cast is whittled down from thousands, hundreds, and dozens to the final 30 "Singular Sensations." (USA, 95 min. PG-13)
"A thrilling combination of documentary and musical dazzler." - Rolling Stone
