Every Little Step

Posted : 14 years, 7 months ago on 13 September 2009 08:10

Dancing is both an art and a sport. Every Little Step is a documentary about two things: a look into the Broadway revival of A Chorus Line and a history of the show. Yes, it’s a bit of a snake that eats its own tail, but it’s fascinating to see how willing some people are to sacrifice and suffer for their art. The auditions are the best part. Some of these people are veterans – their bodies are in peak form, their abilities as well – but when the new comers perform, the veterans get nervous and start to steal from the new comers. Even in dancing there’s ageism! Yes, there’s even a bit of a point teetering on a real-life dancing Margot Channing-style meltdown. There’s a huge interest in dancing right now, but with the exception of So You Think You Can Dance? very little of it shows you the reality. Watch this and see the phrase “suffering for your art” played out before your eyes.
