Chicago
|
A starry-eyed would-be star discovers just how far the notion that "there's no such thing as bad publicity" can go in the musical Chicago. In the mid-'20s, Roxie Hart soon finds herself behind bars alongside Velma Kelly. The scheming prison matron "Mama" Morton hooks Velma up with hotshot lawyer Billy Flynn and Velma becomes the new Queen of the scandal sheets. Roxie is just shrewd enough to realize that her poor fortune could also bring her fame. Soon Flynn is splashing Roxie's story -- or, more accurately, a highly melodramatic revision of Roxie's story -- all over the gutter press, and Roxy and Velma are soon battling neck-to-neck over who can win greater fame through the headlines. Dates are April 27, April 28, May 4 and May 5, 2012 All performances are at 7:30 pm in the Centerville Schools Performing Arts Center 500 East Franklin St, Centerville, Ohio, 45459 (1 mile East of the Franklin St and Rt 48 intersection)
