Awesome / A Chorus Line

Go To

  • "Nothing". Diana's inner voice tells her the class she's taking is complete bullshit, and that she could succeed regardless of what Mr. Carp said. She just needed a different teacher. She realized this after going to church one day. One could interpret that God told her this, and encouraged her to find a class that suited her better.
  • Maggie's high E in "At the Ballet" never fails to earn a thunderous round of applause.
  • The reprise of "One" in the finale. It sums up the director's choices for the audience and has a Rockette-style can-can at the end.
  • Cassie's response when Zach asks her if she'd really sink so low as dancing in a nameless chorus, because she's special. She replies that everyone auditioning is special, and that she would be proud and happy to dance in that line. Her Movie Bonus Song "Let Me Dance for You" follows.
    Cassie: I'll take chorus, if you'll take me!
  • Zach keeps yelling at Cassie for popping her shoulder, screaming "We're not in Vegas!" She adapts quickly, perfectly doing the steps with no flair, and melding into the chorus flawlessly. This causes Zach to pull her from the line and tell her being just one of the chorus was killing him because she was so good at doing what was required.
