The historical show is reaching San Antonio this May, at the breathtaking Majestic Theatre. Starring Ariana Madix, and supported by Kimberly Marable as Velma Kelly and Max von Essen as Billy Flynn, among others. Tickets for this Friday 1st May 2026 performance start at $108.

The musical

Widely celebrated for its distinctive jazz-influenced theme, mesmerizing choreography, and minimalist staging style which reflects the spirit of vaudeville, the musical firmly criticizes the infatuation with celebrity culture.

The revamped musical set in 1920, featuring music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and a book by Ebb and Bob Fosse, centers around the themes of corruption, crime, and the pursuit of fame. After being unveiled on Broadway in 1975, the musical has received an enormous amount of positive and negative criticism, mainly for its provocative message, and cultural impact.

The story

Like Michael Corleone from The Godfather who phased from an idealistic role to a ruthless and cunning leader, Chicago is a exploration through the transformations one goes through to satisfy their hunger for fame and fortune.

The musical showcases how even crime can be a way to fame, highlighting the flaw in the justice system. The musical portrays how individuals shape themselves, and their identities to reach their ultimate personal goal. The musical became groundbreaking from the start for redefining the crime game and introducing new roles of "women" to the genre. The 1996 Broadway production kept the record as the second-longest-running American musical in Broadway history.

Chicago aims to showcase the shallowness of fame, and the contradiction between good deeds and status, demonstrating that not all famous people are successful in the sense of morality. The show presents various individuals each performing for their personal interest, and how they impact each other's lives, through different perspectives.

The awards

The musical has received numerous awards including the Tony Awards (1997), Drama Desk Awards (1997), Grammy Awards (1998), Academy Awards (2003), Golden Globe Awards (2003), BAFTA Awards (2003), and many others.
