'Chicago' opens Friday

Posted

The legendary Broadway hit Chicago opens at Fountain Hills Theater Friday, Sept. 1.

The show is the season opener. Performances are Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m.

In the roaring twenties Chicago, chorine Roxie Hart murders a faithless lover and convinces her hapless husband Amos to take the rap. He goes along with the idea until finds out he’s been duped and turns on Roxie.

Convicted and sent to death row, Roxie and another murderess, Velma Kelly, vie for the spotlight and the headlines. The sharp-edged satire features a dazzling score that sparked immortal staging by Bob Fosse.

Chicago is produced by Alex Gonzalez, directed by FHT’s Artistic Director Peter J. Hill, musically directed by Jennifer Whiting and choreographed by Noel Irick. It stars Lisa Barnes, Summer Beckman, Scot Clause, Victoria Fairclough, Riley Johnson, Haylee Klein, Estee Oglesbee, Morgan Otterbach, Patrick Russo, Anna Sell, Gina Tomkis, JT Turner, Michael Paul Wallot and Eric Williams.

Tickets are $35 for adults and $28 for youth 17 and younger. Call 480-837-9661, ext. 3, or visit fhtaz.org to buy tickets.
