The Broadway show Chicago was truly an amazing experience! The performance was absolutely fantastic – both the dancing and singing were top-notch. The way the performers moved and the quality of their voices were incredibly impressive. I really loved it! The only downside was the entrance experience. Unfortunately, the staff at the door were very rude and spoke to guests in a harsh, almost military tone. When you go to a musical, you're looking forward to a good time and a joyful evening – not to be greeted with that kind of attitude. That said, the show itself was outstanding and definitely worth seeing!

The theater wasn't very large, but the quality of the performers was very high. The program included comedy, which I really enjoyed. I think it's definitely worth going to see. The venue was about 90% full.

Great show, fabulous artists and musicians. Just the air-conditioning blowing icy air over your head made the comfort required for this kind of show unpleasant.
  • Chicago is the longest-running American musical in Broadway history. Touted as the quintessential Broadway show, the musical has all the elements of entertainment, a racy storyline, glamorous characters, outstanding choreography, lively music, and stunning stage design. Chicago brilliantly manages to transport audience members to Chicago during the prohibition era. With superb performances by its cast, this musical masterpiece should be on everyone’s Broadway bucket list.

    The story

    Chicago tells the story of Velma and Roxie, two rival vaudevillian murderesses who are locked in Cook County Jail. Velma is serving time for the murder of her husband and sister, while Roxie is in for the murder of her boyfriend, with whom she cheated on her husband. Velma takes the help of the prison matron, Mama morton, and enlists the services of slick Chicago lawyer Billy Flynn. Billy takes on the case and transforms Velma into a celebrity by brilliantly using the murder hypes to her advantage. But soon enough, he takes on the case of Roxie as well and, before you know it, the two murderesses find themselves in a battle for notoriety. As the women continuously plot to steal the limelight and attention of the media, they pull out their best tricks. Chicago Tickets are in incredibly high demand, so make sure to book now and grab the best seats in the house!
