ACT ONE

The show begins with Velma leading the ensemble in “All That Jazz” as we watch Roxie and her affair with Fred Casely. Roxie shoots Fred, prompting a police investigation during which her husband tries to take the blame (“Funny Honey”). When the detective reveals the name of the deceased, Amos realizes Roxie was lying and recants his story, leading to her arrest.

We meet the Six Merry Murderesses of the Cook County Jail as they sing “Cell Block Tango”. Liz, Annie, June, The Hunyak, Velma, and Mona all sing of how their circumstances led them to the jail. Then we meet the “keeper of the keys”, Matron “Mama” Morton as she sings “When You’re Good to Mama”.

Roxie seeks advice from Velma, who brushes her off. Mama connects Roxie with famed lawyer Billy Flynn to help with her trial (“All I Care About”). Flynn brings in reporters to boost Roxie’s case, including the famous sob sister, Mary Sunshine (“A Little Bit of Good”). He comes up with grounds for Roxie’s case and presents it to the reporters (“We Both Reached for the Gun”).

The press conference is a success and Roxie dreams of her rising fame in “Roxie”. Velma sees her own spotlight fading and decides to try, unsuccessfully, to convince Roxie to join her in a double act (“I Can’t Do It Alone”).

Just as Roxie smugly rejects her, a new jazz killer hits the scene, pushing both Roxie and Velma out of the spotlight. The two sing of their woes (“My Own Best Friend”), until Roxie has an idea and faints in front of reporters. She then reveals she is going to have a baby as Act One closes and a jealous Velma wishes she had thought of that plot first.

ACT TWO

Roxie is back in the spotlight, soaking up the reporters’ attention (“Me and My Baby”). A delighted Amos follows her around, proudly claiming paternity until Billy points out the timeline of events. Amos, dejected, sings “Mister Cellophane”.

As a panicked Velma tries to win Billy’s attention back with her ideas to win over the jury (“When Velma Takes the Stand”), Roxie has begun to think she is above it all; until the Hunyak becomes the first woman in Cook County to be executed. In tears, she turns to Billy who comforts her fears in “Razzle Dazzle”.

The trial begins, and Billy presents his case to an attentive jury. Just as the verdict is to be presented, a new jazz killer appears and the courtroom empties to a devastated Roxie. She sings “Nowadays”, lamenting her loss of fame, before joining Velma’s vaudeville duo and becoming a smash success (“Hot Honey Rag”). In the “Finale”, Velma and Roxie thank their loving audience and proclaim that they represent America and all her ideals… and all that jazz.
