Set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s, Chicago is the story of Roxie Hart (Faye Brookes), a housewife and nightclub dancer who murders her on-the-side lover after he threatens to walk out on her.

Desperate to avoid conviction, Roxie dupes the public, the media and her rival cellmate Velma Kelly by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer to transform her malicious crime into a barrage of sensational headlines.

Created by the musical theatre talents of John Kander, Fred Ebb and choreographer Bob Fosse, Chicago’s sexy, sassy score with one show-stopping song after another includes; Razzle Dazzle, Cell Block Tango, and of course All That Jazz. The show boasts 6 Tony Awards, 2 Olivier Awards, a Grammy and thousands of standing ovations.
