In the spring, Greg Geer directs and Ron Procopio music directs the sexy, sophisticated hit musical, Chicago, a dark parable of the American justice system, which tells the story of a two-bit aging chorine named Roxie Hart who becomes a headline-grabbing star by killing her two-timing lover and trying to pin it on her clueless husband. She not only avoids prison with the help of razzle-dazzle lawyer, Billy Flynn, but she uses the trial to propel herself to showbiz stardom along with another murderous jailbird, Velma Kelly. This explosive musical extravaganza is full of stylish choreography and show-stopping numbers including All That Jazz, Razzle Dazzle, Mr. Cellophane and Class.
