In roaring twenties Chicago, chorine Roxie Hart murders a faithless lover
and convinces her hapless husband, Amos, to take the rap...until he finds
out he's been duped and turns on Roxie. Convicted and sent to death row,
Roxie and another "Merry Murderess," Velma Kelly, vie for the spotlight and
the headlines, ultimately joining forces in search of the "American Dream":
fame, fortune, and acquittal. This sharp-edged satire features a dazzling
score that sparked immortal staging by Bob Fosse.


Chicago (1975) is an American musical with music by John Kander, lyrics by
Fred Ebb, and a book by Ebb and Bob Fosse. Set in Prohibition-era Chicago,
the musical is based on a 1926 play of the same name by reporter Maurine
Dallas Watkins about actual criminals and crimes she reported on. The story
is a satire on corruption in the administration of criminal justice and the
concept of the "celebrity criminal." The sexy and sleek Kander and Ebb
score includes "All That Jazz," "Mister Cellophane," "Razzle Dazzle" and
"Hot Honey Rag,"
