It?s a killer

Greed, murder, corruption. And all that jazz. “Chicago,” one of the highest grossing musicals of all time, razzle-dazzles audiences at the Hippodrome through Sunday.

The musical, based on a play of the same name by Maurine Dallas Watkins, was first performed in 1975. Over the years, the title characters have been played by many different stars, including Bebe Neuwirth, Marilu Henner, Taye Diggs, Billy Zane, George Hamilton and, most recently, Usher and Ashlee Simpson.
