Western New England University Stageless Players return to the stage with three highly anticipated performances of Chicago on April 1-2. The dazzling and satirical Chicago gives the audience a glimpse into how fame, justice, and the media machine were portrayed in the roaring ’20s. Filled with captivating performances of hit songs such as "All That Jazz," "Cell Block Tango," and "Razzle Dazzle" the sold-out shows production ended Stageless Players season on a high note.
Chicago tells the story of Roxie Hart, a chorus girl who murders a faithless lover and convinces her husband, Amos, to take the blame…until he learns that he has been lied to which made him turn on Roxie. Convicted and sent to death row, Roxie met "Merry Murderess," Velma Kelly. There began their struggle for spotlight and the headlines which led to them ultimately joining forces in search of fame, fortune, and acquittal.
