Chicago comes to Craig High school
The music department presents one of the most popular musicals in the history of Broadway, Chicago.
The story of Chicago is one of murder, corruption and jazz taking place in the roaring 20s. It follows the story of Roxie Heart (Bridget Reilly, 11), a girl caught up in a love affair who murders her lover and is skyrocketed to fame.
Throughout her tenure at the Cook County Prison, she meets Velma Kelly (Caitlyn Dickman, 12), her idol and a murderess in her own right. Additionally, she meets Matron Mama Morton (Grace Eddy, 12), a corrupt prison official, and Billy Flynn (Logan Grandt-Turke 11), the best shady defense lawyer in the Windy City. Through a dance of corruption, fame, and media, Roxie has a chance of escaping the county hangman.
Chicago will be performed at Craig from November 3rd-5th at 7:00 pm and November 6th at 1:00 pm in the large auditorium. Students can purchase tickets for $15 and adults can purchase them for $18 at the door or at janesville.simpletix.com
