All singing, high kicking fun is the order of the day in this sexy, sleazy musical set in prohibition era Chicago, and following a showgirl named Roxie Hart as she tries to clear her name of a murder she definitely did commit. Lucky for Roxie, she's got a pair of pins that could turn the head of any lawyer, cop or judge.

When it first came out in the 70s this musical was too smutty and trashy for the public, but the fishnet stockings, synchronized can cans and sexy jazz dances of Chicago have won a massive following since the show re-opened in the naughty 90s. With a fantastic soundtrack and a great cast of larger than life characters, the show is a riot from start to finish.

A young woman's plea for fame, with bits of feminist murder and court room drama... The story is fun, yet the staging falls short of the film version. Whistling is not uncommon in the theatre, thanks to girls with skimpy clothes, black laces and red lipstick. The musical is on for years now, which guarantees a mediocre enjoyment; but nothing far beyond.
