Running since: November 1996 An elegant, minimally-staged revival of Kander & Ebb's gritty, satirical musical - lust, treachery, and murder among chorus girls and backstage types in old Chicago. Winner of 6 1997 Tony Awards, including Best Revival of a Musical.
Bob Fosse, the legendary choreographer who created the first production, got most of his early training in the burlesque halls. In that tradition, this production is an homage to the libido - a writhing, gyrating tour-de-force sure to raise an eyebrow or two.
Conceived and directed by Walter Bobbie in 1996 as a staged concert (note - there's not much scenery), the show features Fosse's legendary original choreography as restaged by Ann Reinking. An excellent score includes the classic "All That Jazz."
May be inappropriate for 12 and under. Children under the age of 4 are not permitted in the theatre.
