Murder, greed, corruption, exploitation, adultery, treachery… and All That Jazz!
Broadway’s longest-running American musical, Chicago, is a dazzling, satirical spectacle that takes a razor-sharp look at fame, justice, and the media machine. With its sultry, show-stopping score and Fosse-inspired choreography, Chicago is as thrilling as a front-page scandal and as unforgettable as the trial of the century.
Now, this multi-award-winning masterpiece is making its way to Sutherland Arts Theatre, brought to you by Tall & Short Theatre Co, the creatives behind recent productions of MAMMA MIA! and Grease - The Musical.
Set in the roaring 1920s and based on real-life events, Chicago follows Roxie Hart, a wannabe vaudeville star who finds herself behind bars after murdering her lover. With the help of slick-talking lawyer Billy Flynn and the fierce, double-murderess-turned-nightclub-sensation Velma Kelly, Roxie fights for the spotlight in a world where fame is fleeting, and justice is just another headline.
Created by the legendary team of John Kander, Fred Ebb, and Bob Fosse, Chicago has captivated audiences worldwide, earning 6 Tony Awards®, 2 Olivier Awards, and a Grammy®.
It would be a crime to miss it!
