Chicago
Manage episode 463361933 series 3519180
For our season four premier, we take a deep dive into the dazzling world of Rob Marshall's Academy Award winning musical Chicago (2002) and compare it to the gritty crimes that inspired it. Behind all that jazz and glittering costumes lie true stories of scandal, murder, and courtroom drama in 1920s Chicago. We explore the real women who inspired Roxie Hart, played by Renée Zellweger, and Velma Kelly, played by Catherine-Zeta Jones, and learn how American's fascination with female murderers inspired a Broadway play, failed movie adaptation, and Broadway musical before it made its way back to the silver screen.
