Broadway’s longest-running American musical, Chicago is a dazzling and satirical look at fame, justice, and the media machine. Set in the city of Chicago during the 1920s, this show is based on real-life murders and trials. Chicago follows Roxie Hart, a wannabe vaudeville star who murders her lover and is arrested, despite her attempts to convince her pushover husband, Amos, to take the fall. In the Cook County Jail, Roxie meets her hero, the famed double-murderess and nightclub performer Velma Kelly. When both acquire the same lawyer, Mr. Billy Flynn, tensions come to a head as they vie for the spotlight. With catchy music and timeless lyrics by John Kander and Fred Ebb, and a funny, intelligent, and utterly engaging book by Kander with choreographyt by Bob Fosse, Chicago is a musical spectacular that you don't want to miss!
In 2002, Chicago was made into an award-winning film starring Richard Gere, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Rene Zellweger.
