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.
Described as a tale of "‘Murder, Greed, Corruption, Exploitation, Adultery, Treachery . . . all things we hold near and dear to our hearts!"
The musical includes some fantastic numbers including: All That Jazz, Razzle Dazzle and Cell Block Tango.
The roles of Roxie, Velma and the lawyer Billy Flynn were played in the film version by Catherine Zeta Jones, Renee Zelwegger and Richard Gere.
The music is by John Kander with lyrics by Fred Ebb and a book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse. Directed by Walter Bobbie with choreography by Ann Reinking.
