Chicago at the Ambassador Theatre, New York City, is Broadway’s longest-running American musical. With music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and a sharp book by Bob Fosse & Ebb, it’s a thrilling tale of fame, crime, and jazz-era celebrity culture. The minimalistic staging, iconic Fosse choreography, and razor-sharp wit make it both timeless and seductive. Since its 1996 revival, Chicago has become a Broadway essential, especially for musical theatre lovers.
