CHICAGO

PROHIBITION IS BACK!


Emma Knights Productions is pleased to be presenting Chicago The Musical in an immersive setting starting right here...It is the mid 1920's and the McVickers Theatre is all a glow...but we can't tell you where it is or the Marshall will shut us down. Dare to speak the password and we will share with you a story of murder, greed, corruption, violence, exploitation, adultery and treachery. All the things we hold near and dear to our hearts...

Chicago is based on actual criminals that 1920s reporter Maurine Dallas Watkins reported on and wrote a play upon in 1926. The story is a satire on the concept of the "Celebrity Criminal" that is still very relevant today. Chicago is the #1 longest-running American Musical in Broadway History, was the winner of six 1997 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival and is filled with show-stopping numbers and the dancing...well you will just have to come and see. 

The location will remain secret until you have booked your tickets...however we can tell you it is West of Adelaide city and close to public transport. A week before your booked performance you will receive an email with the location and the password needed for you to obtain entry to the show. 

So, come and take a trip back in time to experience the thrill of fooling the law, drinking your prohibition liquor in a secret location and get down and dirty with  this all South Australian cast as they perform Chicago in a way you have never experienced it before...dressing in your 1920's best is encouraged!
