NOTE: Chicago: Teen Edition is a modified version of the famous musical Chicago. The teen edition removes adult language and overtly sexual references, as well as the songs “Class” and “A Bit of Good”. The musical still may not be suitable for young children, so parents should exercise their judgment when bringing children to the show.
Happy International Women's Day! Here's to all the fearless, resilient, and unstoppable women in our lives! #BPatriotProud
