Get ready to be swept off your feet as the razzle-dazzle decadence of the roaring 1920s bursts into the Lowry.
The multi-award-winning musical Chicago is embarking on a spectacular UK and Ireland tour and will grace Mancunian audiences from Monday 25th to Saturday 30th August 2025.
Chicago at the Lowry
This thrilling production, presented by David Ian for Crossroads Live in association with Barry and Fran Weissler, promises a whirlwind of scandal, sass, and show-stopping numbers. Tickets are available now for Lowry members, with general sale starting tomorrow— so don’t miss your chance to snag seats for this unmissable theatrical experience.
Set against the glittering backdrop of 1920s Chicago, the story follows Roxie Hart, a housewife and nightclub dancer turned murderess. After fatally shooting her lover, Roxie teams up with the city’s most cunning lawyer to twist her crime into a media sensation.
But with rival cellmate Velma Kelly vying for the limelight, the stakes—and the headlines—have never been higher.
Chicago’s unforgettable soundtrack
Audiences can expect unforgettable numbers like All That Jazz, Cell Block Tango, and Razzle Dazzle performed with sizzling choreography inspired by the legendary Bob Fosse.
It’s no wonder Chicago has become a theatrical phenomenon, earning six Tony Awards, two Olivier Awards, and a Grammy, and holding the record as the longest-running American musical in Broadway and West End history.
Since its Broadway revival in 1996, Chicago has been performed in 38 countries, translated into 12 languages, and seen by over 34 million people worldwide. Now, Salford audiences have the chance to experience this global sensation up close and personal.
A timeless story
With its timeless story, unforgettable music, and dazzling choreography, Chicago is set to light up The Lowry for one electrifying week. Casting details will be announced soon, but one thing is certain—this is a show you won’t want to miss.
Mark your calendars and grab your tickets now.
