The Muny announced today principal casting for the second show of its 94th season, Chicago (June 25 – July 1), directed and choreographed by Denis Jones.

Based on the play by the same name, Chicago features a book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse, music by John Kander and lyrics by Fred Ebb. Chicago is a musical tale of "murder, greed, corruption, violence, adultery and treachery–all those things we hold near and dear to our hearts."

The production features scenic design by Sam and Steve Gilliam, sound design by Jason Krueger, lighting design by Seth Jackson, and costume design by Andrea Lauer. Charlie Alterman serves as the musical director, and the production stage manager is Harold Goldfaden.

Director Denis Jones is "beyond excited about assembling this extraordinary group of actors." The direction and choreography, along with the scenic design, is specifically created to fit the unique scope of the Muny stage and audience.
