CHICAGO is still the only musical with everything that makes a Broadway shimmy shake: a universal tale of fame, fortune and all that jazz, with one show stopping song after another and the most amazing dancing you’ve ever seen.
With the legendary book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse, music by John Kander and lyrics by Fred Ebb, CHICAGO is the #1 longest-running American musical in Broadway history – and it shows no signs of ever slowing down!
There’s never been a better time to experience CHICAGO, Broadway’s dazzling hit. This triumphant hit musical has won 6 Tony Awards, 2 Olivier Awards, a Grammy and thousands of standing ovations. You have to come see why the name on everyone’s lips is still…CHICAGO.
Produced by Apex Touring, CHICAGO has won six Tony Awards since 1997, including Best Musical Revival and the Grammy Award for Best Musical Recording.
This tour will be directed by David Hyslop with choreography by Gregory Butler based on the original direction by Tony Award winner Walter Bobby and original choreography by Tony Award winner Ann Reinking. CHICAGO features set design by Tony Award winner John Lee Beatty, costume design by Tony Award winner William Ivy Long, lighting design by Tony Award winner Ken Billington, sound design by Scott Lehrer, supervising music director Robert Billig and ARC casting.
Set in the dazzling decadence of the 1920s, CHICAGO is the story of Roxie Hart, a nightclub hostess and dancer who maliciously murders her sidekick after he threatens to leave her. Desperate to avoid conviction, she fools the public, the media, and her rival cellmate, Velma Kelly, by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer to turn her malicious crime into a flurry of sensational headlines, the likes of which could just as easily be ripped from today’s tabloids.
It’s no surprise that CHICAGO has wowed audiences from Mexico City to Moscow, from Sao Paulo to South Africa. The show has been seen in 36 different countries and watched by 33 million people worldwide, and now it’s coming to your city!
Whether you’re looking for your first Broadway musical, saw the Oscar-winning movie and want to experience the show live on stage, or have seen it before and want to recapture the magic, CHICAGO always delivers!
