Show Synopsis

Welcome to the roaring 1920s, where glamour, crime, and sensational headlines collide in the sultry and seductive world of Chicago – the musical sensation that took the world by storm!

Set in the heart of prohibition-era Chicago, this Tony Award-winning musical follows the riveting tale of Roxie Hart, a sassy and ambitious nightclub dancer, who finds herself entangled in a web of murder, fame, and ruthless manipulation. When Roxie becomes the prime suspect in the sensational killing of her lover, her life takes a thrilling turn as she hires the cunning and charismatic lawyer, Billy Flynn, to defend her.

In a city where justice is for sale and media attention can make or break a case, Roxie’s story intertwines with that of another captivating murderess, Velma Kelly – a vaudeville star with her own scandalous secrets. As the two vixens vie for the spotlight and fight for their lives, they’ll stop at nothing to secure their freedom and escape the gallows.

Featuring a scintillating jazz-inspired score, including show-stopping hits like “All That Jazz,” “Cell Block Tango,” and “Razzle Dazzle,” Chicago will have you on the edge of your seat, tapping your feet, and mesmerized by the electrifying performances.

With its darkly comedic wit, sharp choreography, and provocative themes, Chicago is a celebration of fame, fortune, and the all-consuming hunger for the spotlight. It’s a tale of deceit, rivalry, and the blurred lines between the guilty and the innocent in a city where notoriety is the ultimate currency.

Step into the world of Chicago, where allure and allurements collide, and witness a tale of murder, mayhem, and music that will leave you spellbound and begging for an encore!
