CHICAGO - TEEN EDITION
This carefully adapted teen-friendly edition of the Tony Award-winning Broadway production presents the tale of Roxie Hart, an ambitious jazz baby who lands herself in Cook County Jail for murder. Roxie's world opens up as she hires the shrewd lawyer Billy Flynn to turn her notoriety into fame.
Alongside the sensationally renown inmate Velma Kelly, another murderess mastering the limelight, the two vie for the public's attention in a razzle-dazzling courtroom drama filled with moody ballads, over-the-top Broadway-style ensemble numbers, Fosse-inspired choreography, and sharp-witted storytelling.
This sleek theatrical adaptation is careful not to lose any of Chicago’s edge as it explores the blurred lines between truth and celebrity.
