Broadway: CHICAGO the Musical to celebrate 7,000th performance


On Tuesday, September 24, the Tony Award-winning stage musical CHICAGO will celebrate a huge milestone with its 7,000th performance on Broadway.

Only twice before has this occurred in Broadway history -- by CATS (which closed in its 18th year after 7,485 performances) and The Phantom of the Opera (now in its 26th year).

When I first read the news about the 7,000th performance, I thought of my friends still in the Broadway company now for many, many years. And I warmly reflected "God, think of their pension accounts." :)

Feels cool that I reconnected with the show again this year at the Hollywood Bowl and Sacramento Music Circus. I was lucky to be a part of the show on Broadway and in the national & international touring companies for over 8 years. And I've been fortunate to explore the show as a choreographer several times.

I never get tired of the show. Clearly audiences feel the same :)

Congrats to the kids down at the Ambassador Theatre. And all that jazz...
