CHICAGO THE MUSICAL
Unscrupulous chorus girl Roxie Hart is in prison for murdering her lover and trying to pin it on her downtrodden husband Amos, when she meets Velma Kelly who is a famous star and also a murderess.
Both women will be hanged for their crimes if they lose their cases and will go to any lengths to escape execution.
So they form an unusual nightclub act, which they hope will keep them in the public eye and earn them fame, fortune and freedom. They enlist the help of sleazy lawyer Billy Flynn to assist them. Click on the image to book tickets for Chicago
