Tony and Oscar nominee Antonio Banderas knows how to make A Chorus Line look spectacular鈥攃heck out the stage and screen star teaching Conan O鈥橞rien some choreography from the show above.
Banderas (Broadway's Nine, current Oscar contender Pain and Glory) co-directed and starred as Zack in a 2019 Spanish-language production of the Marvin Hamlisch-Edward Kleban musical at a theatre he purchased, the 900-seat Teatro del Soho Caixabank in M谩laga, Spain. Baayork Lee, who played Connie Wong in the original 1975 production of A Chorus Line, helmed the staging with him.
鈥淚t makes more sense nowadays,鈥� Banderas said of why the intimacy of theatre is important. 鈥淚t seems that what is not recorded doesn鈥檛 exist. Theatre is beautiful because no matter how technology advances, it鈥檚 just about you and them. There is nothing in the middle.鈥�
Check out footage from the production, which the actor has said is eyeing a potential New York bow, below.
