A COUPLE OF THE CAST MEMBERS JOINING US THIS MORNING. THANK YOU, GUYS, FOR COME AGAIN. WE KNOW IT IS A LITTLE EARLY. MONDAY IS OUR DAY OFF. IT IS KIND OF NICE. KATRINA, GIVE US A FEEL FOR WHAT THE STORY IS. IT IS BASICALLY A STORY ABOUT 17 DANCERS AUDITIONING FOR BROADWAY. THE DIRECTOR ENDS UP INTERVIEWING US ABOUT OUR LIVES. HE WANTS TO CAST SMALL PARTS IN THE SHOW. HE REALLY PUTS US QUITE LITERALLY ON THE LINE. TIFFANI, YOU PLAY CONNIE. TELL US ABOUT HER. SHE IS A BROADWAY DANCER WHO HAS MADE HER CAREER DANCING ON BROADWAY SINCE SHE WAS FIVE. SHE LAMENTS ABOUT HOW SHORT SHE IS, DESPITE THAT SHE HAS WORKED SINCE SHE WAS FIVE. HAVE YOU FELT THIS IN YOUR OWN EXISTENCE? I DO. I AM ACTUALLY 5 FEET. WHAT IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT THE SHOW IS THAT MOST AUDITIONS, YOU DANCE FOR THEM AND THEY DECIDE WHO THEY WANT. IN THIS PARTICULAR SITUATION THE DIRECTOR WANTS TO GET TO KNOW THE PEOPLE. A LOT OF THE TIME THE CHORUS LINE, IT IS JUST A LINE OF PEOPLE AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE. THEY TELL THEIR STORIES AND AT THE END THEY COME OUT. THERE LIKE FINALLY. YOU BOTH ARE LIVING IN NEW YORK? HOW ARE YOU LIKING ST. PAUL? IT IS BEAUTIFUL. IT IS SO HISTORIC. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL CITY.
