Michaelmas Week 4
"If you can't be famous, be infamous". Chicago, the winner of 6 Tony awards and the longest-running American musical in Broadway history, is a story of seduction, murder, and showbiz. Set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s, Chicago is the story of Roxie Hart, a chorus girl who maliciously murders her on-the-side lover. Desperate to avoid conviction, she fools the public, the media and her rival cellmate, Velma Kelly, by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer to transform her crime into fame.
A tale full of corruption, murder and deception. Oh, and all that jazz.
