The iconic production 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 Saturday 2nd May 2026 performance start at $108.
Universally celebrated for its distinctive jazz-influenced theme, electrifying choreography, and minimalist staging style which exhibits the essence of vaudeville, the performance firmly criticizes the infatuation with celebrity culture.
The reimagined musical set in 1920, featuring music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and a book by Ebb and Bob Fosse, focuses on themes of corruption, crime, and the seduction of fame. After being unveiled on Broadway in 1975, the musical has polarized audiences and critics alike, mainly for its thought-provoking message, and cultural impact.
Like Michael Corleone from The Godfather who phased from an idealistic role to a ruthless and cunning leader, Chicago is a journey through the transformations one goes through to satisfy one's hunger for fame and fortune.
The show demonstrates how even felony can be a means 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. This production became sensational previously for changing the criminal game and introducing new roles of "women" to the sector. The 1996 Broadway production maintained 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, that not all famous people are successful in the sense of morality. The show sums up various individuals each performing for their personal interest, and how they intersect with each other's lives, through different viewpoints.
The show has gained countless recognitions including the Tony Awards (1997), Drama Desk Awards (1997), Grammy Awards (1998), Academy Awards (2003), Golden Globe Awards (2003), BAFTA Awards (2003), and more.
