Chicago in new york

Tonight I went to see the revival of Chicago, which is playing at the theater directly across the street from my hotel. Bebe Neuwirth is currently playing the role of Roxie Hart. I enjoyed the show, but I have to say I was a little bit disappointed with Bebe's performance. She seemed to perform best in the pieces where she had a little help from the ensemble. Her solos seemed to lack any real pizzazz.

I did really enjoy the performances of the women who played Velma and Mama. They were natural and fun. Overall, not a bad way to spend an evening.
