From the 1975 Broadway musical 'Chicago'

Chicago is an American musical with music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and book by Ebb and Bob Fosse. Set in Chicago in the jazz age, the musical is based on a 1926 play of the same title by reporter Maurine Dallas Watkins, about actual criminals and the crimes on which she reported. The story is a satire on corruption in the administration of criminal justice and the concept of the "celebrity criminal".

The original Broadway production opened in 1975 at the 46th Street Theatre[1] and ran for 936 performances, until 1977. Bob Fosse choreographed the original production, and his style is strongly identified with the show. It debuted in the West End in 1979, where it ran for 600 performances. Chicago was revived on Broadway in 1996, and a year later in the West End.

The 1996 Broadway production holds the record as the longest-running musical revival and the longest-running American musical in Broadway history. It is the second longest-running show to ever run on Broadway, behind only The Phantom of the Opera. Chicago surpassed Cats on November 23, 2014, when it played its 7,486th performance.[2] The West End revival became the longest-running American musical in West End history. Chicago has been staged in numerous productions around the world, and has toured extensively in the United States and United Kingdom. The 2002 film version of the musical won the Academy Award for Best Picture.

They both are great. Dancing on stage is a lot different then in a movie. You have to nail it on stage, no remakes. They were awesome.

Watch how even when she unbuttons her jacket Bebe incorporates it into her dance. Or how she flips it to expose her hip to the beat. She’s phenomenal.

I saw the Fosse original Broadway with Liza Minnelli and Chita Rivera. It is still my favorite musical. These ladies are amazing.

I saw Bebe on Broadway in Damn Yankees after she left her role in Frazier.
I'd had no idea she was such a talented singer and dancer. Her performance was magnificent!

The girl singing nowadays at the beginning has a delectable way of forming her words.
