Musical

Come on babe why don't we paint the town?..." The hit of the 1997 Broadway season, this sleek, sizzling musical won six Tony awards including best revival. Full of deliciously wicked fun, Chicago tells the sordid tale of two cheap chorines, Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly who "off" their lovers. These two hardened jailbirds then vie for the spotlight and the headlines, hoping the publicity will catapult them to fame, freedom and successful stage careers. With its Fosse inspired choreography, this sharp edged look at murder and mayhem is a toe-tapping, knife- throwing, good time for the mature members of the family. The powerhouse score by Kander and Ebb (Cabaret) includes All That Jazz, Cell Block Tango and Mr. Cellophane.
