Chicago (1927)
Closing Night Gala Sunday 26th March | Screening 20:00 Chicago Dir. Frank Urson & Cecil B.DeMille (uncredited) | USA | 1927 | 1h 58m With: Phyllis Haver, Victor Varconi, Virginia Bradford Performing live: Stephen Horne (piano, accordion) & Frank Bockius (percussion) Chicago is the thoroughly modern tale of a publicity hungry, headline grabbing anti-heroine, as addicted to her own reflection as today’s popular culture is to the Selfie. Roxie Hart is the iconic free-spirited 1920’s flapper transformed into a destructively willful, reckless, self-centred and amoral media darling. Taken to the extreme, she’s the troubling threat to the establishment posed by a generation of young women flaunting social conventions, dress codes and manners, enjoying sexual freedom, self-determination and demanding what they most want out of life. Phyllis Haver (1899-1960) plays Roxie to perfection in a sparkling performance of devious charm, ruthless determination and brilliant comic timing. Tonight is a rare opportunity to rediscover her talent and celebrate the work of an almost forgotten star. Haver began her career in cinema accompanying silent films on piano, became a Mack Sennett Bathing Beauty and then got her big break as an actress, appearing in over 35 films for the Sennett Studios from 1916-20 before signing with DeMille-Pathé. She worked with some of the most revered artists of her day including Buster Keaton, Lon Chaney, Howard Hawks, Raoul Walsh and D.W. Griffith. There’s no doubt that Haver’s star quality and comedic flair elevate Chicago above a simple black and white morality tale. Her career defining performance was praised by critics as “astoundingly fine”, an impressive combination of “comedy and tragedy”.

For a movie musical this was a huge success considering that a musical had not won this category since 1969. The film dominated the 2003 Academy Awards as it was nominated for twelve categories, overall winning six. No one had expected the film to do so well since it was three decades in the making after Bob Fosse’s original release of the Broadway musical in 1976.

Character Descriptions/Synopsis
CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS/SYNOPSIS SYNOPSIS: Broadway’s longest-running American musical, Chicago is a dazzling and satirical look at fame, justice, and the media machine. Set in 1920s Chicago and based on real-life murders and trials, Chicago follows Roxie Hart, a wannabe vaudevillian star who murders her lover and is arrested, despite her attempts to convince her pushover husband, Amos, to lie for her. In the Cook County Jail, Roxie meets her hero, the famed double-murderess and nightclub performer Velma Kelly. When both acquire the same lawyer, the greedy and lustful superstar, Billy Flynn, tensions come to a head as they vie for the spotlight-- though instead of onstage, they’re mugging for the flashbulb of the newspaper reporters. With catchy, jazzy music and timeless lyrics by John Kander and Fred Ebb, and a funny, intelligent, and utterly engaging book by Kander and Bob Fosse, Chicago is a musical spectacular that is as addictive as gossip rags and as unforgettable as any trial of the century. CHARACTERS: Roxie Hart (Female/Lead/Mezzo-Soprano)-- Roxie is an aspiring vaudeville performer, who stays out late with her entertainment-business-connected lover, Fred Casely, hoping to use him to break into the business. One night, Fred tries to leave Roxie, and she kills him. When her husband Amos comes home, she convinces him to lie to protect her, which he does until Sergeant Fogarty questions him until he reveals the truth. Velma Kelly is one of Roxie’s heroes, and she’s thrilled to meet her when Roxie is thrown into the Cook County Jail, only to discover that her idol wants nothing to do with her.

“Isn't It Swell... Nowadays?”: the Reception History of Chicago On
“Isn’t It Swell . Nowadays?”: The Reception History of Chicago on Stage and Screen A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music by Michael M. Kennedy BM, Butler University, 2004 MM, University of Hartford, 2008 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD Abstract The musical Chicago represents an anomaly in Broadway history: its 1996 revival far surpassed the modest success of the original 1975 production. Despite the original production’s box-office accomplishments, it received disparaging reviews regarding the cynicism of the work’s content. The musical celebrates the crimes and acquittals of two murderesses, and is based on Maurine Dallas Watkins’s coverage as a Chicago Tribune reporter of two 1924 murder cases, from which she generated a 1926 Broadway play. The 1975 Broadway production of Chicago: A Musical Vaudeville utilized this historical source material to comment on contemporary American society, highlighting parallels between the U.S. justice system and the entertainment industry, which critics and audiences of the post-Watergate era deemed as too cynical. Although Chicago initially achieved a mixed reception, the revival’s producers made few changes to John Kander’s music, Fred Ebb’s lyrics, and Ebb and Bob Fosse’s book, aside from simplifying the title to Chicago: The Musical. This suggests that the musical’s newfound success can be attributed to a societal shift in the perception of its subject matter. With further success from Chicago’s 2002 film adaptation, the originally dark and sardonic material became a smash hit and found itself as mainstream entertainment at the turn of the millennium.

Show Content Guide
ABOUT Best known for its iconic Bob Fosse choreography, its heroines’ passion for deceit and its dark, witty score, CHICAGO has been a staple of American musicals since it opened on Broadway in 1975. Though the original production received mixed reviews and endured several setbacks that led to its final bow in 1977, these merry murderesses weren’t to stay out of the limelight for long. In 1996, a revival directed by Walter Bobbie and starring Ann Reinking as Roxie Hart became an unprecedented sensation, earning the unanimous praise from critics that its predecessor had lacked. The adapted script by David Thompson and the changing tides in audiences’ willingness to accept celebrated scandal as entertainment has kept the revival playing on The Great White Way for nearly 20 years. Chicago is currently the longest-running musical revival on Broadway, and the second longest running Broadway show of all time. CHARACTERS ROXIE HART – A woman desperate for fame who unexpectedly gains it through the media’s obsession over the murder of her lover VELMA KELLY – A blasé vaudevillian star on trial for killing her husband and sister BILLY FLYNN – The best lawyer in Chicago who’s love for justice is easily eclipsed by his love for money AMOS HART – Roxie’s sheepish and gullible husband who wishes to win his wife’s affection MATRON “MAMA” MORTON – the matron of Cook County Jail who is always glad to extend a favor or two to her charges – as long as they can pay her back MARY SUNSHINE – A vocal and easily swayed newspaper reporter involved with the trials of both Roxie and Velma CONTENT Recommended for ages 13 and older.
