City Theater Company presents CHICAGO The Musical

In “Roaring Twenties” Chicago, chorine 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 and another "Merry Murderess," Velma Kelly, vie for the spotlight and the headlines, ultimately joining forces in search of the "American Dream": fame, fortune, and acquittal. Expect a whole lotta grit and a little bit of glam when the beloved musical CHICAGO rolls into The Black Box at The Delaware Contemporary from December 12-20.
With a book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse, music by John Kander, and lyrics by Ebb, CHICAGO first took the world by storm in 1975 and has endured ever since. CHICAGO is based on the play by Maurine Dallas Watkins, with a script adaptation by David Thompson, and presented here by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
CHICAGO stars Tonya Baynes, Daryan Borys, Jolene Cuisine, Tommy Fisher-Klein, Jonathan Frazier, Scott Frelick, Dylan Geringer, Autumn Jewel Hogan, Mary Catherine Kelley, Paul McElwee, Dana Michael, and Dionne Williford; featured musicians include Don Brill, Josh Dowiak, and Kanako Neale.
Directed by Kerry Kristine McElrone. Music Direction by Joe Trainor. Choreography by Dawn Morningstar. Set design by Rick Neidig. Lighting design by Jason Burns. Costume design by Maura Owens. Stage Managed by Stuart Thomas. Promotional art by Amy Watson Bish, Joe del Tufo, and Joe Trainor.
