A CLASS ACT
From the 2011-2012 Season: Edward Kleban was the Tony-winning lyricist for the Broadway classic, A CHORUS LINE. Upon his death in 1978, a trunkful of songs from never-produced musicals was found by his friends and A CLASS ACT was born. Featuring songs in the classic-Broadway style and characters from his life including his A CHORUS LINE writing partner, Marvin Hamlisch and the show's creator, Buffalo's own Michael Bennett, A CLASS ACT tells the story of a remarkable man and the ups and downs of his life and career in the theatre. CLICK HERE to see a video clip at The Buffalo News website, featuring Director Randall Kramer describing the show and its story.
The running time of the production is approximately 2 hours and 25 minutes, including intermission.
