"I Can Do That" is a song from the musical A Chorus Line.

Production

As with the rest of A Chorus Line's musical numbers, this song was inspired by real-life stories of dancers.

CityBeat explains "nervous Mike...tells how he took over his sister’s dance class opportunity".^[1]

Critical reception

TheatrePeople described the musical style as "lively jazz swing",^[2] while MovieMet called it "an energetic, post-Vaudevillian song-and-dance" and added it "will remind film fans of Donald O’Connor’s “Make ‘em Laugh” routine from “Singin’ in the Rain".^[3] Dance Informa deemed it a "potentially exuberant number",^[4] and Stage Whispers described it as "cute".^[5] It has also been described as a "high-energy number".^[6]
