STUDIO32 are preparing to thrill audiences with their latest musical theatre venture. Their summer show is the Broadway spectacular “Chicago”, the stage version of the film starring Richard Gere, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zelwegger.
Based on real life events the show revolves around a group of merry murderesses, most notably Velma Kelly and Roxie Hart. Both women have been convicted of killing their husbands and are on death row, but help is at hand in the form of a famous publicity-seeking lawyer – Billy Flynn. The show features some impressive dance routines and wonderful songs, including “All That Jazz” and Billy’s big number “Razzle Dazzle”.
The role of Billy Flynn is being played by experienced actor Bill Nicholson (pictured). Bill has been with STUDIO32 for some time, and has played many lead roles over the years both here and in the UK. Many people will remember him for his excellent portrayal of Tevye in the company’s production of “Fiddler On The Roof” two years ago, as well as Mack Sennett in “Mack and Mabel”.
As with the film version the stage show does contain content of an adult nature, and the company advise that it is not recommended for children under the age of 12.
Show dates are Wednesday May 30th to Saturday June 2nd at the Cardenal Belluga Theatre in San Fulgencio, all performances start at 7.30pm with doors open 7pm.
