Chicago to razzle dazzle Dublin

-

The great Kander and Ebb multiaward-winning musical Chicago -- with choreograp­hy by the legendary Bob Fosse -- runs at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre from this Tuesday until April 16. Set in seedy 1920s Chicago, it follows the lovely, vivacious and villainous Roxy Hart,

murderer of her lover, as she battles in prison with the equally dangerous Velma over who can hog the most attention-grabbing tabloid headlines with the help of crooked lawyer Billy Flynn. Songs include the explosive All That Jazz, Razzle Dazzle and Cell Block Tango by 10 female murder detainees about ‘guys who had it comin’.
