A Chorus Line Tickets – First Comes A Chorus Line, Then Comes Baby?
Few people would think that starring in A Chorus Line could lead to a major life change, but that is exactly what happened for celebrity Mario Lopez. Lopez is known as the host of the show America’s Best Dance Crew as well as A.C. Slater from Saved by the Bell. Back in 2008, Lopez turned his attention toward Broadway and took on the road of Zach in the revival of A Chorus Line. He met Broadway dancer Courtney Mazza and the pair began dating. Fast forward to March 2010 and the couple have announced that they are expecting a baby! His former A Chorus Line co-stars will inevitably send their congratulations, but Lopez has since moved on to different projects.
That doesn’t mean that A Chorus Line is over, though, and the show has kicked off a popular touring production of the revival that swept Broadway. This spring, the tour will be hitting spots like East Lansing, Mich.; Kansas City, Mo.; Indianapolis, Ind. and Dayton, Ohio.
