About Chicago

Set in the legendary city during the roaring “jazz hot” 20s, Chicago tells the story of two rival vaudevillian murderesses locked up in Cook County Jail. Nightclub star Velma’s serving time for killing her husband and sister after finding the two in bed together. Driven chorus girl Roxie’s been tossed in the joint for bumping off the lover she’s been cheating on her husband with. Not one to rest on her laurels, Velma enlists the help of prison matron Mama Morton and slickster lawyer Billy Flynn, who turn Velma’s incarceration into a murder-of-the-week media frenzy, thus preparing the world for a splashy showbiz comeback. But Roxie’s got some of her own tricks up her sleeve…

"Seeing Chicago on Broadway was such a fun experience. The set was simple which helped to highlight the performances and the songs. We had great seats but it looks like any seat in the theater is a winner. Would highly recommend seeing it, Ariana Maddox was fantastic as Roxie but the entire cast was fun to watch and very talented. "

"I really enjoyed the songs, orchestra, the dancing and interacting with the audience throughout the performance! It was phenomenal, definitely not for children under 10 years old as there is cursing and seductive dancing. Overall a 9/10 show!!"

"The cast was very good and the songs are absolutely fantastic but it feels like it needs some updated costumes and sets. I was really surprised that most of the costumes were just black mesh. Looked more 1970’s than 20’s which I would appreciate if it seemed intentional not just cheap. It was still very fun just distracting "

"Lucky enough to see this classic show with special guest Jinkx Monsoon. You could tell the cast knew each other well and the presentation was seemless. Bravo!"

"Chicago, starring Alyssa Milano as Roxie, was a fun experience! I think the problem I had with it was just that I have watched the movie so much because it’s one of my favorites, so I constantly compared the actors onstage with the movie, which made it a bit underwhelming. Alyssa was best when she got to show her funny side, and the other actors and dancers were absolutely flawless in their performances. If I had seen this before seeing the movie, I probably would have rated it higher, so if you haven’t seen the movie, go for it and watch this fun show!"

"I enjoyed the "coziness" of the venue; it's not so large you feel lost and the seats offer good viewing. The performance, while good, didn't grab me like other plays/musicals I've attended. I don't have any complaints about the performance or performers, just a personal opinion based on my experiences. There is better ticket pricing mid week."

"Chicago was very good, but a bit underwhelming compared to the heart-filling passion of Hamilton, Les Miserables or Hadestown. Some of the performers looked a bit bored. It was still an honor to see a Broadway classic. "

"The set never changes. There are no costume changes. Been to several shows, this one fell short for the price. A little disappointed, traveling from "Chicago"."

"Love the film, but thought the stage performance lacked speed and snappy excitement/ suspense. Some of the crew clearly had a lot of dance talent and tricks and the choreography could make use of this. Songs also seemed slow on tempo. We felt the relationship between Roxie and Velma could have been stronger and sharper on stage, and again the choreography should be sharpened. It was ok, but the time in which is set could be utilised in style so much more. Costume for Mamma, particularly."

"The actors were fantastic but the show was just not great. I only watched until the end because I bought the ticket last minute and it was expensive! I didn't even wait for the encore, could not be bothered. "

"The show was top notch with fabulous casting/production. Disappointed that the stage was so small, and honestly think the cast was restricted by it. Ushers were warm and welcoming but totally frustrated with the number of people allowed to be seated well into the production. Sorry but if someone is late then they should wait until the intermission. On six separate occasions we were expected to move to the aisle for others, and those behind us were not having it glaring at us when we were the ones being inconvenienced. Fix this policy please. The cast was brilliant, and so engaging. It's really the management of the venue and their policies that were problematic. This experience would likely deter us from a future performance at this theater but the overall production was phenomenal. "

"I have seen Chicago 3 times now. Seen it about 15 years ago, 2 years ago and this past weekend. My daughter and I were disappointed on how much they changed it from 2 years ago. Not as much dancing and the lead role of Roxie was played by a reality show host and she was not near as good in the form of vocals or acting the part. It seemed more like a play rather than the old classic Chicago musical. I hate to be critical as there is so much work that goes into these productions but I feel they have changed the format for the worse not better. We went and seen Hells Kitchen and The Great Gatsby this past weekend also and they were amazing! So much action with dancing and beyond amazing vocals in the songs and the acting by the artists was flawless. I would recommend those Broadway shows over Chicago hands down. "
