An inside look at the romantic and creative partnership between influential choreographer/director, Bob Fosse, and Gwen Verdon, one of the greatest Broadway dancers of all time.

Spanning five decades, "Fosse/Verdon" explores the singular romantic and creative partnership between Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon. Bob is a visionary filmmaker and one of the theater's most influential choreographers and directors, and Gwen is the greatest Broadway dancer of all time. Only Bob can create the groundbreaking musicals that allow Gwen to showcase her greatness. Only Gwen can realize the unique vision in Bob's head. Together, they will change the face of American entertainment -- at a perilous cost.—Jwelch5742

The intertwined professional and personal lives of Broadway dancer/director/choreographer and movie director/choreographer Bob Fosse and Broadway dancer/singer Gwen Verdon is presented, primarily over the course of what would be Bob's movie directing career spanning from the late 1960s to mid 1980s. Gwen was already an established Broadway star in musical theater when she met then up and coming Broadway director and choreographer Bob in the mid 1950s in working on their first collaboration "Damn Yankees" on Broadway, but they would find greater success as a team in Gwen being Bob's muse and she, unparalleled, being able to realize his artistic vision as what would be epitome of the "Fosse" dancer. Their personal relationship, which ultimately included marriage, would crumble largely under the weight of Bob's many vices, mostly his chronic infidelity, but they would continue to rely on each other professionally over the course of their remaining lives - often for good, but just as often for bad - in their emotional connection to each other.—Huggo

A multi-dimensional look at the love story and creative visionary partnership between Fosse and Verdon, two artists that found unconditional love for each other with a commitment to friendship and creative partnership when their marriage was ended due to his infidelity. Although not 100% accurate historically, it shares health dimensions (like his epilepsy) that add expansion to how he suffered, in addition to the "whys" of his destructive, addictive behaviors that started as a teenager.—kateann1027
