Chicago has put a new block of seats on sale at the Ambassador Theatre. Tickets now run through October 3, 2027, which takes the revival well into its 31st year on Broadway.
The new booking period comes in the week the production turns 30. The John Kander, Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse musical opened in its current staging at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on November 14, 1996, and it has played the Ambassador since 2003. In that time it has become the longest-running American musical in Broadway history.
The company is marking the anniversary with a one-night gala on November 16, which will raise money for the Entertainment Community Fund.
Reece Weaver plays Roxie Hart until November 15. The rest of the current principal cast is Lissa deGuzman as Velma Kelly, Max von Essen as Billy Flynn, NaTasha Yvette Williams as Matron "Mama" Morton, Red Concepción as Amos Hart and J. Workman as Mary Sunshine.
The Ambassador Theatre is at 219 West 49th Street. The show runs 2 hours 30 minutes, including one intermission, and is recommended for ages 13 and up.
