Everyone loves a legend – but in Chicago during the roaring

twenties, there's only room for one.  Roxie Hart murders a faithless

lover and convinces her hapless husband Amos to take the rap...until he

finds out he's been duped and turns on Roxie.  Convicted and sent to

death row, Roxie meets up with another "Merry Murderess" Velma Kelly,

who is not happy that Roxie is not only stealing her limelight but also

her lawyer, Billy Flynn.  Roxie and Velma both 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, lavish production numbers and "all that jazz"!
