NTPA Alumni Show
January 2-4, 2025
Rodenbaugh Theatre, Willow Bend Center of the Arts
SYNOPSIS
The annual NTPA Alumni show is performed by alums from NTPA youth theatre who have graduated and are now pursuing college or careers. This year's alumni show is "Chicago!"
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. This sharp-edged satire features a dazzling score that sparked immortal staging by Bob Fosse.
