A replica of the production playing Broadway's Schoenfeld Theatre, the tour is restaged by Bob Avian and Baayork Lee, who re-created Michael Bennett's Tony Award-winning work from the original 1975 Broadway production.

Nikki Snelson of Legally Blonde takes on the central role of Cassie. The director Zach is played by Michael Gruber, a Chorus Line veteran who appeared as Mike in the final cast of the show's original record-breaking run at the Shubert Theatre and who recently finished a stint as Greg in the revival.

Also featured on the line are Clyde Alves (Mike), Venny Carranza (Roy), John Carroll (Larry), Emily Fletcher (Sheila), Stephanie Gibson (Judy), Michael Gruber (Zach), Natalie Hall (Val), Derek Hanson (Don), Hollie Howard (Maggie), Jay Armstrong Johnson (Mark), Julie Kotarides (Vicki), Denis Lambert (Greg), Jessica Latshaw (Kristine), Ian Liberto (Bobby), Stephanie Martignetti (Tricia), Sterling Masters (Lois), Pilar Millhollen (Bebe), Colt Prattes (Al), Gabrielle Ruiz (Diana), Clifton Samuels (Tom), Kevin Santos (Paul), Brandon Tyler (Frank), Anthony Wayne (Richie), J.R. Whittington (Butch) and Jessica Wu (Connie).

The swing performers are Colin Bradbury, Erica Mansfield, Rebecca Riker, and Alex Ringler.
