Chicago Teen Edition

Thu 06 - Sat 08 Aug at 2:00pm & 7:30pm Corn Exchange, Haddington Musical theatre, youth performance in Haddington

The Brunton Summer School in association with David Ross.

Our talented community cast is supported by a professional production team.

Sharp style, big personalities and electric jazz, where everyone’s fighting to be seen. With iconic music, slick choreography and serious attitude, this show is fast, fearless and full of edge. This is not a fairy tale. Its bold, confident and unapologetically theatrical.

In Roaring Twenties Chicago, chorine Roxie Hart murders a faithless lover and convinces her hapless husband, Amos, to take the rap...until he finds out he's been duped and turns on Roxie. Convicted and sent to death row, Roxie and another Merry Murderess, Velma Kelly, vie for the spotlight and the headlines, ultimately joining forces in search of the American Dream: fame, fortune, and acquittal.

Taking part in creative activities is fun and helps build confidence, fuels the imagination and develops skills that are useful in all areas of life. As well as developing a range of acting and performance skills, it is a great way to meet new people, build confidence, and above all, have fun!

Seating is at round tables for this event.
