This month, CHICAGO is welcoming two of its top leading ladies back to the cell block.

The first is Amy Spanger, who will return to the Ambassador Theatre for a limited engagement in Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse's record-breaking musical beginning tonight, August 4. Spanger will reprise her role as 'Roxie Hart' for two weeks only, departing August 16.

CHICAGO currently stars Wright, Grammy winner Brandy as Roxie, Ivan Hernandez as Billy Flynn, Raymond Bokhour as Amos Hart, and NaTasha Yvette Williams as Matron "Mama" Morton.

Per press notes, "Set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s, Chicago is the story of Roxie Hart, a housewife and nightclub dancer who 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."
