Theatre Lawrence "Chicago" preview by Sarah Aylward
After six years of petitioning for the production rights to the musical “Chicago,” Theatre Lawrence, 1501 New Hampshire, finally received the green light. Directed by Mary Doveton, with musical direction by Mary Baker, the musical opens on June 10 at 7:30 p.m. at Theatre Lawrence with an opening night reception to follow catered by Pachamama’s.
The choreography has been redone twice and the swearing is all gone, the cast even says the directing SUCKS! Don't go to this show unless you want to watch Bob Fosse roll over in his grave.
Saw the preview last night and it was fantastic! The choregraphy borrows heavily from Fosse's original vision, and the dancers do a really great job! Velma is awesome, and Billy Flynn is great. Mama is different than other Mama's I've seen, and I think it worked. A few hot male dancers, and the cell block girls all rock it. A really cool space to see the show in too. If you like Chicago, you want to catch this one, I was captivated!
