Chicago on Broadway delivers an outstanding theatrical experience anchored by exceptional performances across all elements of production. The cast consistently receives praise for their remarkable talent, confidence, and charisma, with standout performances and the ensemble's brilliant execution of Fosse's iconic choreography. The show's greatest strengths are its spectacular dancing and choreography, sensational singing, and phenomenal orchestra performance, with reviewers particularly impressed by the dancers' precision, stamina, and athleticism, as well as the live band's engaging interaction with performers. The production also excels in its vibrant costumes, clear diction, and energetic pacing that maintains audience engagement throughout. Minor criticisms include the story feeling somewhat dated after 30 years of the show's run and occasional concerns about theater seating comfort, though these issues do not significantly detract from the overall experience. The show comes highly recommended as a must-see Broadway production that successfully transforms familiar material into a fresh, captivating live experience, making it an excellent choice for both first-time Broadway attendees and returning theater enthusiasts.

We came all the way from WACO TX for this.
"My daughter wanted to go see Whitney, I had no idea who she was and knew very little about the show Chicago. However, we bought tickets and came to NYC to see what it was about. All I can stay is, WOW, it was worth it! I would go see it again and would recommend it to others. "

Definitely worth the visit
"I have never seen Chicago before. I came to see Whitney and was completely blown away by everyone’s talent!!! 100/10, we sat in the front mezzanine and the preview of our seats was spot on. We had a clear shot of the stage. The seats are tight, in terms of knee room but that’s the only complaint. Definitely worth the hype!!"

A classical movie on stage again
"I liked the live performance of the orchestra on stage and the music itself and the enthusiasm of the young audience. There are several details in the Chicago musical which differentiate it from the masterpiece movie with Renee Zellweger which gives the Broadway show a vintage air only. "

Great Show
"Chicago was so good, the entire cast was wonderful, so much talent. I saw the show with Whitney Leavitt and Sophie Carmen Jones. Whitney was really good but Sophie Carmen Jones playing Velma was simply amazing serious talent and an amazing voice.
Lets not forget the band, they were great!

Incredible show
"Before Whitney Levitt announced that she would be joining Chicago as Roxy, I had no knowledge of this show. I bought tickets for myself and family to see her and was absolutely blown away. She and the entire cast were phenomenal. Out of all the shows I have seen, this one easily took place as my favorite. It was 10000% worth the travel to see, especially with Whitney’ "

Sensational masterclass
"A sensational masterclass in style and satire! From the iconic opening notes of "All That Jazz," the energy never falters. The choreography—dripping with that classic Fosse sleekness—is sharp, sexy, and executed with breathtaking precision.
It’s a wickedly funny look at fame and "justice" that feels just as relevant today as it did decades ago. If you want a show that delivers powerhouse vocals, legendary dancing, and a bit of "razzle dazzle," Chicago is the one to beat. A true Broadway staple that everyone should see at least once!"

A classic that you have to see at least once
"Everything is great in this classic Broadway musical. The music and choreography are truly iconic, as well as the performances.
Although it was been around for a long time, the story still keeps you engaged. It's incredibly dynamic and fast paced. In spite of minor sexual overtones, there are no graphic scenes or language that would make it unsuitable for minors."
