I still get chills watching this performance and hearing this closing number to “A Chorus Line,” my favorite play. I was a trained dancer and know the thrill of performance. This Tony award winning play is dedicated to “Anyone who has ever danced a step.” It is enthralling, and for the few who never saw it, I encourage you to seek it out. Due to its sheer excellence, it is always playing somewhere in the world. RIP, Marvin Hamlisch and Michael Bennett.🎶❤️🎶
In the ensuing years, Marvin Hamlisch became one of only two people to win the EGOTP: Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony *and* the Pulitzer Prize So I guess he didn't have too much to be insecure about. :-) (The other was Richard Rodgers)
Like myself and Cathy said. We're dancer's. We bleed sweet and tears. We made it look easy but we know it was insanely hard. We had a cold but when the curtains came up? We were well happy to make other's smile and enjoy each move in every single play we did. They art's the stage is the most powerful honest place anyone can attend or participate in. I'd breaks my heart to think was the curtain coming down during the beginning of this pandemic... really all of our last curtain call? If it was... I'm extremely grateful from 8 years old to 51 I got to meet train with icons and I miss all the Theater attendees so much. Theater attendees are very special people, there a whole different level of people personalities and they are the best fans in the world. Ah- ready set and a 1-2-3-4! Again! And there's no take 100 if you mess up you better make sure it look's as if it's supposed to be in the Choreography or else. We miss you all dearly. Cathy I hear Streisand singing HEY LOOK AT ME WORLD! (HERE I AM) HERE WE ARE! We hope many of you have been able to attend one musical play. The screen is nice, but the stage? That's when you know you did it. Everyone stay safe, a group of amazing performers made a video of the Westside of England and it was the saddest thing I'd seen. However there song with masks there dancing through all of the empty streets of closed plays really inspired me. Cathy you will be moved like never before. From all of us to all who love the theater's no we love you all and miss you all dearly. Thank you all for allowing us to be a part of your lives. ZEN ❤🎼🩰🎭👯♂️👯♀️🙋♀️
I have HUGE admiration & respect for dancers. I began to understand, in my "old" age, that dancers can see a routine or series of steps/movements and pretty much repeat them while musicians can hear a tune/melody and repeat it. Did I get it right? Don't know why I didn't understand this 50 years ago.
The absolute power to perform a song from A Chorus Line, a musical that is largely about the gay experience and the feeling of being “other” in Reagan’s White House is unmatched! I’m sure many of the dancers, who most likely lost many loved ones to the AIDS epidemic, must’ve felt a feeling of catharsis in this performance. Absolutely amazing!
I saw it on Broadway a few months after it opened...I believe this musical was primarily about the ups and downs of a dancers life...not necessarily a homosexual's life.
@@geraldmoran6387 I didn’t say primarily, but a major theme in the stories is being gay: mark’s monologue is one of the biggest dramatic beats for example.
I was in a Chorus line I was the youngest in history. London's and traveling. This pandemic has taken so many stage dancing friends and I really miss the stage the amazing people. I feel awful, it's like the strisand song I know my way around here I don't know why I'm frightened. And I really look forward to singing hey look at US WORLD HERE WE Are. Amazing video ty. The first presidential I ever voted for. Amazing, I miss Ronald Reagan. I find it said that he already knew he had the beginning of alzheimer's. Amazing video ty for this. Just what I needed. 🎩💃🎶🎼🎼
@Cindy Klenk I was in it as well never allowed to use my name in any contracts my mom made sure of it. I also traveled and was the youngest 17. Training with icons. My Madame is a very famous illustrator, grandfather jewelry icon his office was above sakes. Miss my late agent and Fosse as well as the rest of them. I'm also supposed to be dead in art history and I'm very private but very much alive. I was adopted as a 6 month old. My biological father music icon as well as mother. Miss violet head of the best line in the world. Stay safe right now I'm basically battling cancer that was in my ankle. Again I'm pretty private. I'd die before I voted for Trump. I had Covid-19 from January until May died 4 time's. How dare this happen to anyone. I can't believe any of them using our lives. I refuse to participate in hate or negative vibes. Our country has become one big FEMA camp. I can also say I'm very proud of being a humanitarian. This is byhond unexplainable. I don't run my fb or anything social media. I was just informed of this comment and asked to respond. Broadway has been home from 8 years old until I got sick. I can't wait until touring resumes. Stay safe. My agent would yell at my father saying if ever light went out on Broadway your daughter would be the only one blub fighting to stay lite. Yes you and I understand how awful it is. What's a hug 😔 I remember being sick and exhausted training until I made myself cry bleed. I can't believe what's happening... I find myself often thinking with tears in my eye's, were all of us to date the last? 😢 💔 😔. I'm sure we meet in passing. I cry thinking that the curtain will never come up again. I'd love to live in that hole any hole in the wall above one of our stages. Were just really lucky, but than I cry missing Bob fosse for taking me under his wing as a child. I'm not sure people really understand to us that's home Cathy. I'd love to sneak inside one and just cry on the stage 😢 😭. People like us understand it was our outlet. People really don't understand us. I'm really happy you wrote it made me stop crying for a bit. I'm not sure what to make of this nightmare but it's wrong on every level of the word. I can't believe how many we lost in our country, I can't believe how many people we lost 💔 😔 in our lives industry. This is like the scene in Beaches, stay safe and in touch Cathy. This is honestly killing me. Hope they say have hope? Forget the holidays there canceled in my life. But if I ever had to get arrested? I'm ready to now just so I can blast Streisand and the second one can beauty come out of ashes. I can't believe how many people have passed away. As you and I know one is to many. I've gone through my savings and I've been thinking about selling everything and once we can travel leave the country and never return. It's really nice to hear from you a person who understands exactly what I'm feeling. Pleased to meet you even if under such awful circumstances. All my love 💓 to you I really think we could find a way inside one of those theaters. Love it and it'd be worth it.
@Cindy Klenk Yes, I was they only child only person he took under his wing, Oh my 19th Birthday he was so excited, I could finally work in his predictions. I received the call from him my husband and I were getting ready to return to Bay Ridge my mom had joined the peace crop and sold everything. The phone rings we looked at each other ( thinking oh no Huston there's a problem at MTV, or on a tour, or did I miss a show?).

I can't believe I will not be there now, you know her father his wife feeling never has he seen her work! Yes, yes Bob I know you almost nailed him flat out. Bob truly Congratulations on your opening tonight in Washington. One moment I think you should tell your little shadow Bob, she's here with her husband. ( sadly my husbands I lost two by 27. Cathy pls don't say you're sorry. It's been long ago and well....? It's ok, but it isn't.) Husband what was she thinking getting married at 18 in her last year of high school?

Cathy we looked at each other and I had tears in my eyes I am very into Fosse technique, IDC who try's recreating it, its no way anything like his.... Ugh your a dancer sadly you no what happened when he left the hotel that fateful evening he passed right outside the playhouse on opening night in his Ex wife arms in Washington D.C. Did you happen to watch the Verdon and Fosse Minnie series? I'd love your input on that ...... I know the truth myself. Id love to talk with you. My dyslexia is in high gear lol
@Cindy Klenk Ah yes I remember her see sadly I received a chest and you and I both no that's a NO-No so I would tape my cheat to my ribs everyday of my life. I was in Joffrey company until I forgot to tape my chest down, however still trained there as well. I never forgot to tape it again. Now I look at them and scream I want them removed asap. Ah yes I know who madame Natalia was as well as many other's boy oh boy people haven't a clue all we went through do they? Just to do what we loved and to bring smiles to other's faces. Tag your it my sister of warm water salt blood sweat tears and the stage isn't anything like take 100 its mess up and make it look as if you didn't lol
One of the most thrilling production numbers ever! Thank you Marvin Hamlisch, thank you Michael Bennett; thank you President & Mrs. Reagan for understanding that Broadway is a uniquely American art form.
WOW! I had never seen this. This cast was super amazing. I wonder if they put it together fo the White House performance or it was the actual Broadway or touring cast that did this. I have seen Chorus Lines many times including with the original cast way back then and I don't remember this number being that fast or that crisply danced in any of the shows I saw. How wonderful to have been able to be there that night.
A SHOW Stopper AND Starter - and the magic stays and goes on and on. Marvin Hamlisch' 'ONE carries the show to the greatest and longest running musicals of all time . . .
Back in a time where you didn't have to close your eyes and ears in fear of something obscene or profane being said...there was at least a semblance of cordially back then..
I love Nancy Reagan’s dress. She was a good speaker too. Not shy. I have a book about her wonderful life. Someone said that they didn’t understand what she saw in Ronald, but she has loved him until he died. RIP Nancy Reagan.

In the full production, the character of Paul leaves the stage early, Zach is only onstage very briefly a little more than halfway through, and Larry is never on stage, so they're the first three onstage for the finale. The women have plenty of time to change because the men do the entire first verse alone. The men who don't make the 'cut' probably come out after Paul, Zach and Larry, then the men who do. It still calls for a heck of a quick change. They must have had extra wardrobe staff to help with that.
I wondered what was up.... I know this is an older clip and somewhat blurred. Maybe it was the material of the costumes but it wasn't "flattering" - looked like bottomless outfits.
Ronald Reagan y su esposa Nancy, entonces Presidente y Primera Dama de los Estados Unidos en 1988, le dan la bienvenida al gran espectáculo "Chorus Line" original de Marvin Hamlisch, mostrando toda la excelencia y plasticidad de este magnífico grupo de bailarines y bailarinas que hacen las delicias y arrancan los aplausos del público invitado a La Casa Blanca en Washington D.C.
І пафасна высокія цыліндры Увенчвалі іх дзёрзка і бліскуча. Зьліцьцё фігур у танцы на палітры Зь мелодыяй старой і мілагучнай. Узорамі ўсьмешак пачуцьцёва Майстрыцы зьзяньні позіркаў віталі! Заваблівыя рухі ладных сьцёгнаў Прысьпешвалі ўхвалу цэлай залі. Рытмічнасьцю іх грукалі абцасы, І стромка ногі ўскінулі раптоўна, Паветра расьсяклі імкліва разам, Імпэтам танцавальным і чароўным.
#Hamlisch: Incredible! And special thanks to the #Reagan administration. (IMHO #PresidentReagan evidenced no characteristics said now, by some, to be #Alzheimer's. I think the man was stately and brilliant to the last.) My prayers and condolences to #NancyReagan and the entire family. 🇺🇸
This was at a time when there was decency and respect in the White House unlike today with Biden in office who has brought so much shame to the White House
This just seems so weird. His first term, Reagan’s policy was defund arts, environmental protection, slam gays. To hear him at an event a show so gay friendly indicates total turnaround or total hypocrisy. I hope it’s the former. PBS and Npr had no commercials annd few pledge drives before Reagan-or so it seemed.
Just because Reagan could string a sentence together doesn't make him a great president. His down home folksy thing was acting. Nancy ran the show...as is clear in this clip.
Routine actually starts around 3:40 if you care to skip forward. Always a great dance routine, and, as noted elsewhere, this seems to be a hair faster than normal.
I still get chills watching this performance and hearing this closing number to “A Chorus Line,” my favorite play. I was a trained dancer and know the thrill of performance.

If you really did what you say you have done you would know the it's a MUSICAL and not a play. You're a liar.
That is one of the hardest dance numbers I have ever done in my career, and this was so fast and they were spot on! Phenomenally done!
It's Great 👍
Grandissimo spettacolo. Indimenticabile corpo di ballo bravissimi.lo rivedrei sempre
Seemed so fast i wondered if the film wasn't sped up a bit? I love that song ❤
Wher have ya done it ? Broadway? How long ?
May I have your autograph? Thank you for your talent!
My daughter performed ONE, a Chorus Line in her dance review of 1991, and I know she could have been a member of this line. Fabulous
Lucky you! You must be so proud.
Marvin Hamlisch was brilliant, outstanding, "One" of a kind.
agreed.
instablaster...
@John Collins His autobiography is fascinating.
@John Collins I rarely missed an episode of Carson. I don't remember that one so you've now given me a research task. Thanks.😕
@John Collins Thank you. I appreciate it. Actually, pretty funny. There really is such a thing as the good old days.
President and Mrs. Reagan, there will never be another couple like them. May they Rest in Peace.
Thank you. You said it!!!
He despised guys so much that he would not fund research to address the AIDS onslaught. That is really crappy and shameful.
Could anyhing be more fun? I love Broadway music so much! This should put a smile on ANYONE'S FACE! Thank you, Marvin!
In the ensuing years, Marvin Hamlisch became one of only two people to win the EGOTP:
Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony *and* the Pulitzer Prize
So I guess he didn't have too much to be insecure about. :-)
(The other was Richard Rodgers)
This was ridiculously fast and they didn't miss a damn beat!!
God Bless Marvin Hamlisch and America. Bring us back
Please.

Don't tell that to the folks on the West End in London.

So true! Yes!
Was the orchestra leader in coke ? Faaaast!
After seeing ACH 5 times across the country after N.Y. original cast in 76, they did it exactly as was written and scored.
I do believe that is a recording. The musicians are not playing in the back. But, yeah, that was fast.
Arlene Ríos yeah, noticed that too..
If the music was fast, the dancers would be off. They weren’t.
Playing Marvin Hamlisch in my youth Orchestra ♡
Terrific...Marvin Hamlisch was a complete talent...miss him.
Back in a time where you didn't have to close your eyes and ears in fear of something obscene or profane being said...there was at least a semblance of cordially back then..
I declare it: this song is awesome. Marvin Hamlisch is awesome.
My favorite musical
That...was...excellent!
Can’t help loving this n❤❤❤
Mr. President, where are you in this time, we need you so much.

One, singular sensation, every little step he takes
One, thrilling combination, every move that he makes
One smile and suddenly nobody else will do
You know you'll never be lonely with you-know-who
One, moment in his presence and you can forget the rest
For the guy is second best to none, son
Oooh! Sigh! Give him your attention
Do I really have to mention he's the one
She walks into a room and you know she's
Uncommonly rare, very unique
Peripatetic, poetic and chic
She walks into a room and you know from her
Maddening poise, effortless whirl,
She's a special girl
Strolling
Can't, help. all of her qualities extolling
Loaded with charisma is ma
Jauntily, sauntering, ambling, shambler
She walks into a room and you know you must
Shuffle along, join the parade
She's the quintessence of making the grade
This is whatcha call traveling!
Oh strut your stuff! Can't get enough of her
Lo-ho-ho-ve her!
I'm a son of a gun, she is one of a kind!
One!
Singular sensation
Every little step she takes
One!
Thrilling combination
Every move that she makes
One smile and suddenly nobody else, will, do
You know you'll never be lonely with
You know who
One!
Moment in her presence
And you can't forget the rest
For the girl is second-best
To none, son
Ooh! Sigh!
Give her your attention
Do, I
Really have to mention
She's the...
One!

Thanks a lot, Marissa Gold.
Those were great times for America.
Very well done for an improvised stage. Tight!
The best US statesman ever. His and Thatchers relationship was the best between our two great nations. 🇬🇧 🤝 🇺🇸
Nancy was amazing.
WOW!
Does anyone know how they do that amazing quick change from rehearsal clothes to Theoni's gold outfits????
In the full production, the character of Paul leaves the stage early, Zach is only onstage very briefly a little more than halfway through, and Larry is never on stage, so they're the first three onstage for the finale. The women have plenty of time to change because the men do the entire first verse alone. The men who don't make the 'cut' probably come out after Paul, Zach and Larry, then the men who do.
It still calls for a heck of a quick change. They must have had extra wardrobe staff to help with that.
it appears that they have blurred the front of the girls.
I wondered what was up.... I know this is an older clip and somewhat blurred. Maybe it was the material of the costumes but it wasn't "flattering" - looked like bottomless outfits.
Мне очень нравится, что девушки в золотых купальниках))
June 27, 2024
Hate it when this number is sped up.
An honest question: Do the dancers sing or are the vocals taped?
Good times when Republicana were on the Power.
Hard to imagine a time when Republicans actually appreciated the arts like this. How far the GOP has fallen.
I find it difficult to believe that the dancers are singing as well
Saw A Chorus Line four times.
Perfection! Shame tho, Reagan never lived to see how the middle class is eradicated today fulfilling his dream..
💛💙♥️

Увенчвалі іх дзёрзка і бліскуча.
Зьліцьцё фігур у танцы на палітры
Зь мелодыяй старой і мілагучнай.
Узорамі ўсьмешак пачуцьцёва
Майстрыцы зьзяньні позіркаў віталі!
Заваблівыя рухі ладных сьцёгнаў
Прысьпешвалі ўхвалу цэлай залі.
Рытмічнасьцю іх грукалі абцасы,
І стромка ногі ўскінулі раптоўна,
Паветра расьсяклі імкліва разам,
Імпэтам танцавальным і чароўным.
Shirley Jones too.
Kick line is always a crowd pleaser.
I got all verklempt just seeing Ron and Nancy. Those were the days!
You'll always have the Trumps
This seems like the b'way cast at the same time and they were brought down to D.C. just for the day.
Is anyone here from the original company?
FAST!!!!!
#Hamlisch: Incredible! And special thanks to the #Reagan administration. (IMHO #PresidentReagan evidenced no characteristics said now, by some, to be #Alzheimer's. I think the man was stately and brilliant to the last.) My prayers and condolences to #NancyReagan and the entire family. 🇺🇸
your sarcasm is delicious! he could hardly stumble through his note cards here
This was at a time when there was decency and respect in the White House unlike today with Biden in office who has brought so much shame to the White House
Shame? Please explain
That’s the cheesiest setup ever!
Washington will never be the same
Who were this cast
Either touring co. or the 1988 Broadway cast brought down to Washington on a Monday night when The Shubert was dark.
It's too fast !
Out of curiosity from Good Fight
This just seems so weird. His first term, Reagan’s policy was defund arts, environmental protection, slam gays. To hear him at an event a show so gay friendly indicates total turnaround or total hypocrisy. I hope it’s the former. PBS and Npr had no commercials annd few pledge drives before Reagan-or so it seemed.
Well done, but way too fast. What's the rush, son? Slow it down.
@Cindy Klenk I guess that was easier than getting the Reagans to talk faster.
It would have been nice if they'd played the song but that didn't happen.
3:43
Now that was a President
Just because Reagan could string a sentence together doesn't make him a great president. His down home folksy thing was acting. Nancy ran the show...as is clear in this clip.
@@gregghanson6095 I bet you voted for sleepy joe and heels up cameltoe.
Fast tempo.
"Chorus Line" or "Cats"? Which is the worst musical of all time?
The Reagans? Who are they?
hahaha....tempo is pretty brisk!! Who conducted this??? Dancers should all be awarded the Purple Heart!!!
I was half expecting one of the chorus members to kick Regan when he walked on stage.
that tempo! yikes
Zz
Yeah, go back to sleep Ed, you missed the excellent cast performance.
jesus fuck what tempo is this
the costuming is sexist: the women are scantily clad a lot of exposure, men fully clothed.
You’ve obviously never taken a dance class.
Fuckin' Nancy just had to get out there and take a bow. No, I don't mean Hamlisch!
Love that trumpet run.
God...when they hit the mark, on the final chorus....a chill went down my spine. Absolutely thrilling.
Routine actually starts around 3:40 if you care to skip forward. Always a great dance routine, and, as noted elsewhere, this seems to be a hair faster than normal.
It’s perfect isn’t it❤
I've never seen such original dancing...before or since.
Back when the White House was civilized and classy. Probably the last time. 😢
Pure perfection!!!!! Thank you!
13022020 thu Nothing will ever match this. Priceless
BRAVO!!!
Song sounds like Mame, with different lyrics!🤔
ook
Orchestra was way too fast but the performers kept up. Kinda unfortunate 'cause it's such a dramatic song.
That Reagan creep spoils it.
