In an empty theater, on a bare stage, casting for a new Broadway musical is almost complete. For 17 dancers, this audition is the chance of a lifetime. It's what they've worked for - with every drop of sweat, every hour of training, every day of their lives. It's the one opportunity to do what they've always dreamed – to have the chance to dance. This is A Chorus Line, the musical for everyone who’s ever had a dream and put it all on the line. Winner of nine Tony Awards®, including “Best Musical” and the Pulitzer Prize for drama, this singular sensation is the longest-running American Broadway musical ever. Now A Chorus Line returns. Come to Segerstrom Hall to meet the new generation of Broadway’s best. “A Chorus Line is back, and it’s thrilling!” said John Lahr of The New Yorker.

The Indie Band Series continues with Nada Surf headlining an evening that begins with DJ Paul V from media partner Indie 103.1 at 8 p.m., followed by an opening group to be announced. Nada Surf includes singer - guitarist, Matthew Caws, Ira Elliot on drums and Daniel Lorca on bass. The group recently released it’s fifth album “Lucky,“ filled with images of restlessness, longing and the elusiveness of love, yet the band counter-balances the bitter sweet lyrics with musical buoyancy. The result is a hit album that is both literal and ironic.
