The sexy, salacious jazz age sizzles in 1920s Chicago, where small-time show girl Roxie Hart becomes the toast of the town after murdering her lover in cold blood. But fame is fleeting for the hot jazz slayer of the moment, and Roxie and smooth-stepping lawyer Billy Flynn manipulate everyone around them in a high-stakes tap dance into the headlines and away from the hangman’s noose.
One of the all-time favorites of Broadway and the silver screen, CHICAGO spellbinds with hot Fosse production numbers including “All That Jazz” and “Cell Block Tango” crafted by Broadway veteran and Cincinnati native David Baum in his regional choreography debut.
Fellow Broadway vet Leslie Goddard (Roxie) and CCM standout Kimber Sprawl (Velma) lead a thrilling cast of local favorites and top university performers.
