Synopsis
In “Roaring Twenties” Chicago, chorine Roxie Hart murders a faithless lover and convinces her hapless husband, Amos, to take the rap... until he finds out he's been duped and turns on Roxie.
Convicted and sent to death row, Roxie and another "Merry Murderess," Velma Kelly, vie for the spotlight and the headlines, ultimately joining forces in search of the "American Dream": fame, fortune, and acquittal.
Changes made for the Teen Edition (1) Removal of adult language and overtly sexual references (2) Removal of "Class" and "A Bit of Good" (3) Transposed keys to better accommodate teen voices
