What did our critic think of A CHORUS LINE at SF Playhouse? For theatre lovers, A Chorus Line is iconic, holding a reverential appeal with its backstage story of cattle call hopefuls putting it all out there knowing their chances of making the final eight are slim. With its largest cast ever assembled, SF Playhouse’s production delivers on the required elements of Jamed Kirkwood Jr., Nicholas Dante, Marvin Hamlisch, and Edward Kliban’s 1975 Pulitzer Prize winning musical; superb choreography and the angst of the performers forced to expose their most intimate stories.

Lippman's music is witty, comedic, and lowkey vulnerable, walking the tightrope between Leonard Cohen, Beck, Jonathan Richman, and Father John Misty. He has opened for Ratboys, Wild Pink, and Shonen Knife and has had SNL's Dan Licata cover Generation X's 'Dancing With Myself' with him (9 times in a row at one show).
