red shirt with the stripe...he was amazing! I grew up with his younger brother and then Greg opened a dance studio; we would go just to watch him dance... long time ago...:-)
I am in tears! 2:08 to 2:36 brings tears to my eyes, becouse I was just a kid, about 12, when I met Gregg Burge, he and my uncle Kwame, RIP 1946 TO 1982 use to practice dancing alot together, they where in the Wiz, my uncle was the Tinman! Gregg Was the scare crow! I actually witness my Uncle and Kwame do that same move together, and I felt their spirit, as if they where, brought back to life!! Amazing simple Amazing!
Here's a few interesting tidbits: The lady who plays Cassie played the drama teacher in the High School Musical movies; Michelle JOhnston (girl in the green) played the choreographer in "Showgirls"; Bob Fosse's daughter, Nicole (one-piece w/brown belt), is in this, so is Wayne Gretzky's wife (the greyish-blue) two piece. The lady who plays Val isn't in the main dance sequence because she was hired mainly for her "star" quality (she was on Dallas & OLTL) not dance ability.
Just looked him up and you are right! In fact he was very active and very successful on Broadway, including having done this part there. What a great artist. It would have been great if everyone in this movie had been up to his standard.
Hadn't, seen this movie in quite a while . The women are all in such great shape. Just beautifull ! Not one big ass or big thigh like a Kardashian! These women were in the best shape, but I guess you'd have to be to dance these routines. Hard to believe it's 39 years ago !
Not only is Gregg Burge gone too early, it's also Tony Fields (Al DeLuca, the hubby of the squeaky voiced girl); he was only 36 when he died from cancer (secondary to the AIDS) in 1995.
Mom was a professional dancer To this day she still raves about Michelle Johnson ( girl on the green and blonde ) Just watched it tonight and was reminded of all the timed backstage during her performances etc
I could have sworn that I heard that at the time the lead dancer in this had taken a leave of absence from the Dance Theater of Harlem to do this movie. I wonder if that was the case?
So odd, they both deid of brain tumers, my uncle Kwmae in 1982, Gregg Burge died, in 1998 Rip Gregg Burge and My Uncle Kwame. Thank you, for shareing your gift!
I've never seen the movie/show (whatever), and did not know nor have seen the young man before either. However as I watched this, I said to myself, "He'll be dead soon." Said this before reading the comments. I am very sorry that he died so young. So many people get caught up in the immoral life style of the show business world and ruin their lives so quickly and so profoundly. It's like scum-sucking pus eating away the flesh until there is nothing left. So frightening and so sad.
Ive seen this movie well over 100 times and will never get tired of watching this. Greg was by far my favorite dancer!!
Love the fact they probably went through the exact same audition to be in the movie, they’re so talented ❤❤❤❤❤
I am no dancer, but when he does those leaps at 2:30, his arms, legs head everything are in the exact same position through every turn, i'm impressed!
I’ve watched this bit hundreds of times and still get goosebumps. He was simply the best.

This place.... by far..... is the best Broadway play I have ever seen in my life... nothing else will be better
Love it no matter what! Broadway play snobs hold no space in my mind. I loved this movie. Inspired every time. Period.
Did you even see the Broadway version of A Chorus Line?
A trick : watch series on flixzone. I've been using them for watching loads of movies during the lockdown.
@Xzavier Noel yup, I have been using Flixzone for years myself :D
@Xzavier Noel Definitely, been using Flixzone for months myself :D
Janet Jones (powder blue tights and tank)... became Mrs Wayne Gretzky. Nice eye Wayne ! :D
I loved this movie growing up. This video brings back so many wonderful memories of my sister and I trying to dance like them. That was awesome.
Yes, Gregg Burge performed/sang this "Surprise" number. He certainly was exceptional. Gone too soon.
That black guy in this was so incredible....a true talent
What is that black guy’s name? He is out of this world! What did he do after the movie? He should be as famous as a dancer as Michael Jackson!
G Ulmerton Gregg Burge - an incredible tap dancer also!!
His name is Greg he passed away in 1998
@@Atlanta62awww that’s so sad, he was amazing 😢❤❤
Gregg Burge had previous fame in his early years when he played Dwayne, a member of The Short Circus in Seasons 3 and 4 of "The Electric Company"

Gosh. I love the footwork!

What a dancer 😅
it's one of my favorite scene of the movie
thanks a lot for that
He gave me life the moment he blinked!!!! SOOOOOO GREAT!!!!!!
Greg i will always remember--the best--one of my favs
At 1:10, look in the mirrors in the background. You can see the dancers abruptly stopping their movements after they go past the camera.
Not only is Gregg Burge gone too early, it's also Tony Fields (Al DeLuca, the hubby of the squeaky voiced girl); he was only 36 when he died from cancer (secondary to the AIDS) in 1995.
Tony Fields - Solid Gold Dancer
Mom was a professional dancer
To this day she still raves about Michelle Johnson ( girl on the green and blonde )
Just watched it tonight and was reminded of all the timed backstage during her performances etc
やっぱ本場はすごいねー。見とれてしまう。
誰も指摘しないから言うけど2分40秒からのダンスシーン。ピンクで金髪の女性メンバーから外されて16人から15人になってる。
Janet Jones' kick at 00:53 is amazing!
dmitrigarcia gretsky
コーラスラインで一番好きな曲で数年後、舞台を観に行った時、この曲は映画オリジナルだと知ってショックでした。
spettacolo!!!!! eterno,senza tempo!!!
Yes ma'am honey, he did that split!!
The name of the main dancer is Gregg Burge. He was tap dancer and choreographer. He was 40years old when he died of a brain tumor in 1998.
La bonne époque ce film a marqué mon enfance
REALLY!!!!!!! he was my favorite!!!!!
RIP dude you were great
AWESOME!
They cut "Hello Twelve, Hello Thirteen, Hello Love" for this song? What the hell?
I could have sworn that I heard that at the time the lead dancer in this had taken a leave of absence from the Dance Theater of Harlem to do this movie. I wonder if that was the case?
1:50 私が観たダンスシーンの中で、最も忘れることが出来ない名場面。
グレッグ・バージは40歳の若さで他界してます。。。。
I like the blonde in bright green. I used to spoof to her back when I was 14.
germanicelt
+dina esther Maidana Yeah?
That's Be be. She was a terrific dancer.
I love Hello Twelve,hello thirteen, hello love more but i like this dance for some reason
Grandios!
@anglhrt770 WHAT CITY DID HE OPEN THE DANCE STUDIO IN AND WHERE WAS IT !!?
Greg burge is the best!
It was in his speech before the dance. He had sex for the first time, not so great. Then the next time... surprise! He describes it in the song.
Was this uploaded with a toy phone out of a Cracker Jacks box?
Not to be heartless, but do I see an AV Club stealth here? If so, awesome. If not, my appologies, but still kind of awesome.
wait is that Captain Kathryn Janeway of The Federation starship USS Voyager??!?!
So odd, they both deid of brain tumers, my uncle Kwmae in 1982, Gregg Burge died, in
1998
Rip Gregg Burge and My Uncle Kwame.
Thank you, for shareing your gift!
One of the Landers sisters, not sure which.
what's her name?
that just sucks he passed away and there is literally NO info on him online anywhere.

1:47 やべえ、フリーザ様入ってるw
I like the blonde in white. What is her name?
Janet Jones, Wayne Gretzky's wife
I appreciate that you answered my question.
But I'd like to know the name of woman in white who appears at 1:09.
Judy
Oh, let me find out.
She plays Maggie
I've never seen the movie/show (whatever), and did not know nor have seen the young man before either. However as I watched this, I said to myself, "He'll be dead soon."

Hilda Britt according to Wikipedia he died of a brain tumor
@jijigod here's a tissue man.
The black guy choreographed the ballet segment in Michael Jacksons Bad video. And the guy in the open white shirt danced as a zombie in Thriller.
RIP
did he die? if so, Rip, he was amazing. Can't get enough of his dancing and talent.
I have seen the dances and heard the singing from the theater plays and do not even come close to this....Im soorry but the movie was way better
my bad, I was spelling his name wrong on google
@samo314159....Like what, bust em as well?
This is such an awful song. I can't believe someone thought it was a good idea for the movie.
