Chicago, the winner of six Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival, hits the stage of the Palace Theatre June 8-13.
Now celebrating 13 years of girls, glitz and glamour on the Great White Way, the record-breaking, smash hit musical and sixth longest-running production in Broadway history, will make a stop in Columbus as part of its national tour.
Murder, greed, corruption, violence, exploitation, adultery and treachery are set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s in Chicago, the story of housewife and nightclub dancer Roxie Hart who maliciously murders her on-the-side lover when he threatens to walk out. Desperate to avoid conviction, she dupes the public, the media and rival cellmate Velma Kelly by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer to transform her malicious crime into a barrage of sensational headlines.
Presented by CAPA and Broadway Across America, Chicago plays the Palace Theatre (34 W. Broad St.) June 8-13. Tickets range from $22.50 to $67.50 and can be purchased at the Ohio Theatre Ticket Office (39 E. State St.), all Ticketmaster outlets, and www.ticketmaster.com.
