Tony-nominated choreographer Lorin Latarro joins The Roundtable with Robert Bannon to talk about bringing new life to the iconic musical Chess! Known for her dynamic, storytelling-driven movement in productions like Waitress, Into the Woods, and Mrs. Doubtfire, Latarro has become one of Broadway’s most exciting creative forces. Now, she’s stepping into the world of Chess, a beloved cult classic with a legendary score by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of ABBA, exploring how choreography helps shape the emotional and political tension at the heart of this powerful story.
In this engaging conversation, Latarro shares how she approaches reimagining such a fan-favorite piece, balancing respect for its legacy with a fresh, contemporary lens. We talk about the evolution of dance on Broadway, collaboration with directors and performers, and how movement can elevate storytelling in a show driven by high stakes and even higher emotions. It’s a fascinating look inside the creative process from one of the best in the business—and a must-watch for theater lovers!
