Brand new production images for the UK and Ireland tour have just dropped.
With a cast led by Faye Brookes as the infamous Roxie Hart, Brenda Edwards as the powerhouse Mama Morton, and Kevin Clifton stepping into the sharp suits of Billy Flynn, this tour promises to bring all the glamour, scandal, and show-stopping performances we’ve come to expect.
Joining them on stage is Djalenga Scott as the fierce Velma Kelly, Joshua Lloyd as the charming but overlooked Amos Hart, and Jordan Lee Davies as the dazzling Mary Sunshine.
The ensemble includes Bethany Adamson, Victoria Anderson, Josh Crowther, Joe Dale, Jessica Keable, Robin Kent, Annabelle Laing, Jacob McLay Reid, Jonathan Milton, George Olney, Oliver Ramsdale, Elly Shaw, Lucy Anne Stacey, Matthew Sweet and Ria Tanaka.
Created by the legendary team of John Kander, Fred Ebb, and choreographer Bob Fosse, Chicago has always been a firm favourite for theatre fans. Its timeless, jazz-infused score features iconic numbers like Razzle Dazzle, Cell Block Tango, and of course, All That Jazz.
It’s no wonder Chicago has racked up six Tony Awards, two Olivier Awards, and even a Grammy. It’s also the longest-running American musical in both Broadway and West End history.
The UK and Ireland tour, like the original Broadway revival, stays true to the magic of the 1996 production, with choreography by Ann Reinking (in the unmistakable style of Fosse) and direction by Walter Bobbie.
