'Chicago' Music and Stagecraft | The BSB Podcast


Listen Later

There's nothing quite like all that jazz, and Broadway has consistently brought the heat since 1996, when Chicago made it's trimpuhant return to New York City. Having found a home at the Ambassador Theatre, Chicago has brought down the house night after night, with one of the most classic Broadway shows that you can still find in the Big Apple. So what is it about this show that keeps bringing people in 30 years later? Perhaps part of that has to do with the timeless music and impressive dancing that continues to razzle and dazzle audiences, which is just a piece of the puzzle we'll be discussing today!

In this episode of the BSB Podcast, hosts Brian Kitson and RJ Miller-Zelinko break down the music and stagecraft of Broadway's Chicago. From songs we were familiar with to pieces that spoke to us on so many levels, there are so many musical aspects and performances to discuss. Also, Chicago has stripped away any big, flashy sets, placing the focus on those on stage and the talent they possess. In that regard, which performance struck us as top of the game, and which left us scratching our heads? Listen as we give our thoughts and final verdicts on this long-running Broadway show!
