Description

John Lennon sees A Chorus Line on Broadway, featuring the future star of the musical 'Lennon'

Original Playbill for a production of A Chorus Line at the Shubert Theatre in April 1976, 5.5 x 9, signed on the front cover in red ballpoint by John Lennon. In fine condition. Accompanied by a ticket stub for the show, dated April 21, 1976.

A Chorus Line opened at the Shubert Theatre on July 25, 1975, directed by Michael Bennett and co-choreographed by Bennett and Bob Avian. An unprecedented box office and critical hit, the musical received twelve Tony Award nominations and won nine, in addition to the 1976 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It went on to run for 6,137 performances, becoming the longest-running production in Broadway history. Interestingly, Robert LuPone starred as Zach in the original production; he would later play John Lennon in the 1982 musical Lennon.
