The New World School of the Arts will host their production of Chicago at the Louise O. Gerrits Theater at Wolfson Campus, 25th N.E. 2nd St.
Productions of the musical will take place on the 8th floor of the 5000 building on Feb. 28 at 7:30 p.m., March 1 at 2 p.m., March 7 at 7:30 p.m. and March 8 at 2 p.m.
The show follows two criminals navigating fame and using their polarizing images to their advantage while facing murder charges.
“It’s a critique of society’s fascination with fame and scandal. We see it all the time: criminals using fame to lighten their sentences,” said Matthew Buffalo, who is directing the student-led production. “We’re complicit when we fall in love with these criminals.”
General admissions is $15 per show; admission for students and seniors admissions is $10.
