Give 'em the Old Razzle Dazzle: Annie Wright Students to Perform the Hit Musical Chicago
Annie Wright students in Grades 8-12 will perform the hit musical Chicago at 7:00 pm on Friday, February 17, and Saturday, February 18, in Annie Wright’s Kemper Center Theater.
This fast-paced classic, directed by award-winning pianist, composer and music teacher Elizabeth Gettel, showcases student acting, singing and dancing, with elaborate 1920s sets and costumes. Set in Prohibition era-Chicago, the musical satirizes celebrity criminals of the era, with plenty of greed, corruption, show business…and “all that jazz.”
With book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse, music by John Kander and lyrics by Fred Ebb, Chicago is based on the play by Maurine Dallas Watkins and adapted by David Thompson. This production is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
Tickets by donation. Some mature themes.
