Go Back Chicago: Teen Edition

Chicago: Teen Edition is a specially adapted version of the classic Broadway musical Chicago, designed to be suitable for young performers while retaining the core elements of the original show. Set in the roaring 1920s, Chicago tells the story of Roxie Hart, a housewife and nightclub dancer, who murders her lover in a moment of passion. She finds herself in jail alongside another famous murderess, Velma Kelly. Both women vie for the attention of their slick-talking lawyer, Billy Flynn, in a quest for acquittal and the fame that follows a scandalous trial.

Chicago: Teen Edition explores themes of fame, corruption, and the justice system, blending satire with dazzling musical numbers and sharp, witty dialogue. It features iconic songs like "All That Jazz," "Cell Block Tango," and "Razzle Dazzle," but has been edited for content to make it appropriate for younger audiences and school productions. The show maintains the bold energy, dance, and music that made Chicago a beloved hit, while offering teens an opportunity to take on its challenging roles in a way that is accessible to their age group.
