Description
Dancing Man: A Broadway Choreographer's Journey is a memoir in three acts that reveals the life story of Tony and Olivier Award-winning choreographer Bob Avian. Born before he was thirty, Avian appeared onstage with stars like Barbra Streisand and Mary Martin. The book takes readers through two pivotal periods in Avian's career: his early years as a performer and his later success as a choreographer and director. During this time, he worked on numerous iconic productions, including Company, Follies, Dreamgirls, Miss Saigon, Sunset Boulevard, and A Chorus Line. His collaborations with legendary figures such as Stephen Sondheim, Michael Bennett, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and Julie Andrews are also explored in detail. Candid, witty, and sometimes shocking, this memoir offers an intimate look at the creation of some of Broadway's most memorable musicals.
