Chicago Tickets

Phoenix Theatre

The criminally good musical sensation wows West End audiences with red-hot choreography, showstopper music and a scandalous tale of fame and murder. Catch the iconic, crowd-pleasing Chicago at the Phoenix Theatre.

A criminally good musical sensation

Fame, murder, and all that jazz hit the West End as Broadway favourite Chicago draws audiences to the Phoenix Theatre. This deliciously dark musical is a crowd-pleasing story of obsession, murder, and irresistible music.

When chorus girl Roxie Hart is sent down for murder, she falls out with famed singer - and cellmate - Velma Kelly and in with charming lawyer Billy Flynn. Soon, her time behind bars leads to a darkly entertaining obsession with fame, stardom, and getting away with murder.

The show features music by John Kander and lyrics by Fred Ebb. With red-hot choreography by the legendary Bob Fosse and songs including “Cell Block Tango” and “All That Jazz”, Chicago musical tickets are so tempting, they should be illegal. 

When Chicago first opened in London it ran for 15 years, cementing its place as the longest ever West End revival. First opening at the Adelphi Theatre in November 1997, it became one of the hottest shows in town after receiving the Olivier Award and Critics Circle Award for Best Musical. 

Bursting with razzle-dazzle and wickedly good songs, Chicago has earned its spot as one of the longest-running musicals in London. Don't miss this sensational musical at the Phoenix Theatre.

One of my all time favourite shows, unfortunately let down by the casting. 3 of the leading performers were off - and while I never usually mind an understudy, unfortunately the chemistry between characters was lacking.

I have seen this show 5 times over the years with varying casts. Whilst I was looking forward to Martin Kemp, he wasn't my favourite Billy Flynn!

Chicago is my favourite show, the music, the story, and choreography just make it the most wonderful and engaging piece of entertainment. It was well acted and I loved that the band were onstage as it just adds to the jazz vibe of the show.
