"You've got it comin'..."

Roxie Hart a chorus girl murders her lover and ends up in jail with her rival and personal icon Velma Kelly. Velma killed her own sister for having an affair with her husband and she aspires to be the most successful performer there is. The two women vie for press supremacy going to all manner of lengths to make the front pages and secure their fame.

Both villains hire slick lawyer Billy Flynn to keep them from death row and with the aid of Mama Morton - the prison guard and acting press officer for the girls, can they stay in the news and out of death row?

Based on true events Chicago emphasises the powerful affect the media can have on swaying public opinion and just how influential the press have to be making and breaking a career in the public eye.
