Suggested Backdrops

TheatreWorld has all the razzle dazzle you need for your production of Chicago! Many designers choose a simpler set for this show, which is really all about the dancing. RED AND GOLD DRAPES, in one of the show's signature colors, will leave plenty of room for choreography, while sticking to Chicago's showbiz themes. To play more on the show's time period, choose detailed ART DECO ABSTRACT, fully of glitzy metallics worthy of a star. If you're looking to cover other scenes with backdrops, consider COURTROOM INTERIOR for the trial scenes. THEATRE BACKSTAGE will set the scene for audition and rehearsal scenes. PRISON INTERIOR - B is the perfect home for the Merry Mistresses of Murder Row--and for Velma's famous opening number, seedy and forbidden SPEAKEASY INTERIOR will paint the town red! When you choose TheatreWorld Backdrops, we'll be good to you!

Chicago Backdrops

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. This sharp-edged satire features a dazzling score that sparked immortal staging by Bob Fosse.
