CHICAGO is back in 2025 and sexier than ever before. The award-winning Broadway and West End musical will be on stage at Artscape from Wednesday, 27 August to Sunday, 28 September 2025 thereafter heading to Montecasino’s Teatro, Johannesburg from Friday, 3 October to Sunday, 9 November 2025.
“Chicago is one of the most successful productions ever staged in South Africa – and the demand for its return is unwavering,” says Hazel Feldman, Chicago’s SA producer. “From its unique Bob Fosse choreography to its sizzling score, seductive costumes and intriguing plot with performances by a highly talented all South African cast, Chicago is not to be missed.”
A nightclub singer, a double-murderess, a smooth-talking lawyer and a cell block of sin surrounded by the razzle dazzle of the world’s sexiest musical You’ve Got It Comin’ as the story of Chicago unfolds to show-stopping songs including All that Jazz, Cell Block Tango and Mister Cellophane. From the opening line to curtain close, there’s nothing like Chicago on stage.
Produced by Showtime Management in association with Barry & Fran Weissler, Chicago has a combined South African and international creative team including associate director, Tânia Nardini, and re-creation of New York production choreography by Gary Chryst, both of whom have staged Chicago across multiple continents. Award-winning South African musical director, Kevin Kraak (The Lion King, Chicago, My Fair Lady) will lead the 11-piece orchestra and the sexy, stylish ensemble will once again razzle dazzle South African audiences.
