There is something very magical about Broadway. You will find many different people who act in various roles on Broadway musicals and shows. For these people there is nothing more exhilarating than to be in one of these productions and to know that a show is in great demand. Dancers, however, are usually pushed into the background, meant to decorate and enhance a performance but not occupy center stage. These individuals help to bring the different shows alive with their talent and vibrant moves.
Choosing any career in dance is a precarious decision, particularly for dancers with their eyes on a Broadway career in New York City. Manhattan is a notoriously expensive place to live and as Don from “A Chorus Line” puts it, though one may have dreams about dancing here “dreams don’t pay the rent.”
Despite all of these elements working against them, there are still plenty of dancers hoping to one day see their names in a Playbill even if their faces go unnoticed on the stage.
