Chita Rivera bypassing L.A.

“Chita Rivera: The Dancer’s Life” isn’t coming to L.A. -- again.
The musical biography originally was to have done its Broadway tryout at the Ahmanson Theatre in 2005. But the producers couldn’t raise enough money to stage that engagement and opted instead for the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego.
The show did go on to Broadway and now is touring. Rivera and her troupe were booked to play March 27 to April 1 at the Wilshire Theatre Beverly Hills. But that stint was canceled this week because, according to a spokesman, “the presenters find there is not enough time to promote it properly.”
The show will appear as scheduled March 20 to 25 at the Orange County Performing Arts Center.
