Watch Chicago at Dubai Opera

Set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s, Chicago is the story of Roxie Hart, a nightclub dancer who murders her on-the-side lover after he threatens to walk out on her. Desperate to avoid conviction, she dupes the public and the media by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer to transform her malicious crime into a barrage of sensational headlines. Created by the musical theatre talents of John Kander, Fred Ebb and legendary choreographer Bob Fosse, Chicago’s sassy score includes the show-stopping songs “Razzle Dazzle”, “Cell Block Tango”, and “All That Jazz”. The cast in Dubai includes Sinitta, Faye Brookes, Darren Day, Djalenga Scott and Joel Montague.
