From the opening moments to the very end,you are most entertained!!! The Dancers are Wonderful. The Singers voices are great. All of the Cast were most sutiable for their Roles. Jerry Springer was an added Delight. Over all an unforgettable Event. The Show left you with wanting More.
I loved it.. all the actors did an outstanding job... I am a huge fan of the movie and I was not sure if I would enjoy the musical as much on stage.. both are different in their own right, but buttom line... the musical onstage was outstanding.
Wow! These dancers really pulled it off. Roxie was incredible! Very animated. Would see it again!
Very funny and entertaining! I would definately go watch again and recommend it to a friend. If you have the opportunity to go watch it, don't miss it!
The costumes, the dancers, their movements, the voices - Chicago provides full on high energy entertainment from the moment the house lights dim. The simple set really allowed the actors to shine. Even Jerry Springer wasn't as bad as I expected, (note: I didn't say he was good.) A good investment for your entertainment dollar. A must see.
This was, hands down, the best ever play I've seen at the Fox. The music was perfect, the actors and dancers were just amazing. It was mesmerizing. The moment we left my daughter stated, " I could go right back in and sit through that again." Not too shabby for a 24 year old and I completely agreed with her opinion. I could go back again tonight if it were possible. Don't hesitate to spend your hard-earned money for this one. You will never regret it.
I don't understand the few bad reviews it got. The show was enjoyed by me and my friends who all liked different aspects. But everyone enjoyed The Number "Mister Cellophane" Mind You that we were 16 years old The vaudeville theme was very clear and enjoyable. The cast was amazing Bianca Marroquin was Roxie & Terra C MacLeod was Velma they did an unbelievable job.I've never had so much fun in the theatre than at Chicago. Anyone who doesn't enjoy Chicago doesn't like the theatre because this is one of the best shows And All That Jazz!
A very professional and entertaining evening. The value we received was worth every cent. We are lucky to have such a professional production stop in Ottawa for a few days.
My guest and I really enjoyed the show. We could not understand why the Ottawa critics had been so harsh (maybe they caught them on an off presentation). The Saturday matinee presentation we saw was really great. As any presentation, one can not expect a live performance to belike the film. Thank goodness for that! Over the years, I have had the privilege to see shows on and off Broadway, in London (UK), Toronto, Ottawa and other locations. This cast held its own! I rate this 4 stars... I am a perfectionist! Sorry, nothing to date has rated 5 stars!
Very enjoyable.........singers & dancers were excellent.
One the best shows I've seen! Sofia Vergara was awesome and so was the rest of the performers!
This was a great show and it was nice to have the Orchestra on stage with the performers.
The dancing and singing was amazing. We felt it lacked costume and set design. How can you die in one scene and be back in the next scene as someone else? I have imagination but.....
Chicago is a great show. This production demonstrated that by managing to bring the audience to its feet without ever really getting close to the spectacular show it could have been. So much has been minimized: filling the stage with the orchestra reduces the playing area to a shallow strip at the front, there are no sets and very few props, and some of the choreography was decidedly underwhelming. Still, the script and score manage to shine through, and overall it was an entertaining evening - especially for those who were unfamiliar with the show and thus had no idea how much better it could have been.
Amazing show. Scored brownie points with the wife since I got the tickets for our 28th Wedding Anniversary!
Saw Chicago the Musical in Toronto and loved it!! I saw a very different show in Ottawa and was disappointed. I was expecting the same version I had seen in Toronto and instead caught a more boring display. I found the singing was fantastic however the set and costumes were NOT!! Would it have hurt to have a little splash of glitter and colour on stage? Almost everyone wore black and it was just dull and because of that I found myself anxious for it to come to an end. I bought a ticket for my daughter and a good friend and both found it boring as well. One other reason we were not impressed and this has nothing to do with the actors, singers or the production itself, the website indicated the show started at 8 PM, I printed the information and brought it with me. When we got to the theatre at 7:15 we were told all evening performances start at 8 PM except Sunday evening which starts at 7:30. We were glad we had arrived at 7:15 and not after the show started however many did arrive after 7:30 up to and including 8:00 PM. This made it very disturbing when someone had to get to their seats in front of you. Please correct this time difference on the website.
When I think of Chicago the Musical, "WOW!" is the first word that comes to mind. The actors were wonderful and wooed me into the 1950s. WOW!!!!!!!! My fiancé and I always call to mind "Mr. Cellophane." Indeed, he is one of our favorites!!! GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!
My Mom and I attended Chicago in June in Ottawa and were pleasantly surprised. We loved how the orchestra was actually worked into the entire performance. The leads were so gifted and it was truly worth the money. There is nothing like live theatre, and Chicago delivered an entertaining, sexy and sultry performance with some giggles mixed in. I would recommend this show to anyone!
This was one of my favourite musicals of all time - amazing singers and dancers, and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I brought my sister as a treat for her birthday, and we had great seats in a loge which made it even better.
Wonderfully performed, including the excellent music! Excellent casting (acknowledging that no one could come close to the original production with Gwen Verdon and Chita Rivera!). It sure heated up Winter in Ottawa!!! WOW!
