Chicago (musical)
September 30 – October 2
Haller Stage in The Spencer Performing Arts Center
Directed by Mark DiPietro
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 has 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.
