TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Pam Klinger (Maggie) and Charles McGowan (Mike) met during the production, became a couple, and eventually married.

The song "Dance 10, Looks 3" was originally called "Tits and Ass", but it was changed so that the audience would not see that title listed in their programs. The logic was that if it were a surprise during the show, it would get a better audience reaction.

The director Richard Attenborough wanted to cast only unknowns as the aspiring chorus members, and Audrey Landers was concerned that she was too well known from the TV series Dallas (1978) to make the cut. Fortunately, Attenborough had never seen Dallas (1978).

Terrence Mann (Larry) later married actress/dancer Charlotte d'Amboise. Two decades after Mann made this movie, d'Amboise played the role of Cassie in the 2006 Broadway revival of "A Chorus Line".

Because of her dancing inexperience, Audrey Landers is generally not seen in wide shots of the entire cast dancing, but is inserted in close-ups. A dance double is clearly seen in long shots of "One".

Popular Dialogues

"Zach: Tell me about the Bronx. Diana: What's to tell about the Bronx? It's uptown and to the right. Zach: What made you start dancing? Diana: Who knows? I'm Puerto Rican. We jump around a lot."

"Larry: Don't you know the combination, Sheila? Sheila: I knew it when I was in front!"
