Program Description

Event Details

Chicago premiered on June 3, 1975 at the 46th Street Theater.  The original production ran for 936 shows.  The 1996 production is now the longest running production currently on Broadway.  Join us as we explore the story of the 1920's crime story that is "Chicago".

Entertainment historian John Kenrick has worked in the theatre at every level from amateur to Broadway, eventually serving as personal assistant to six Tony Award winning producers, including the team behind the original production of Rent. He has taught musical theatre history courses at New York University’s Steinhardt School, The New School University, and Philadelphia’s University of the Arts.

Like all Southbury Public Library programs, this event is free to attend and open to anyone regardless of town of residency. Registration is required. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Southbury Public Library.
