Description:
The Center for the Arts at Virginia Tech presents a Broadway in Blacksburg event featuring the musical "Chicago" on Monday, February 23, 2026.

Chicago is still the one musical with everything that makes Broadway shimmy-shake: a universal tale of fame, fortune, and all that jazz, with one show-stopping song after another and the most astonishing dancing you’ve ever seen.

With a legendary book by?Fred Ebb?and?Bob Fosse, music by?John Kander?and lyrics by?Fred Ebb,?Chicago?is the longest-running American musical in Broadway history — and it shows no sign of ever slowing down!

There’s never been a better time to experience Chicago, Broadway’s smash. This triumphant hit musical is the recipient of six Tony Awards, two Olivier Awards, a Grammy, and thousands of standing ovations. You’ve got to come see why the name on everyone’s lips is still… Chicago.

Set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s, Chicago?is the story of Roxie Hart, a housewife and nightclub dancer who maliciously murders her on-the-side lover after he threatens to walk out on her. Desperate to avoid conviction, she dupes the public, the media, and her rival cellmate, Velma Kelly, by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer to transform her malicious crime into a barrage of sensational headlines, the likes of which might just as easily be ripped from today’s tabloids.

It’s no surprise that Chicago?has wowed audiences from Mexico City to Moscow, from Sao Paulo to South Africa. The show has been seen in 36 different countries and seen by 33 million people worldwide — now it’s coming to Blacksburg!

Adults tickets range from $50.00-$100.00 and tickets for youth ages 18 & under range from $30.00-$80.00.
