Chicago is still the one musical with everything that makes Broadway shimmy-shake: a universal tale of fame, fortune and all that jazz, with one showstopping song after another and the most astonishing dancing you’ve ever seen.

In the whirlwind of Chicago’s Jazz Age, two of the Cook County Jail’s most notorious murderesses — vaudeville star Velma Kelly and chorus girl Roxie Hart — become fierce rivals as they compete for headlines amidst a media frenzy.

The final work by the beloved Italian composer, Puccini, is well known to modern audiences thanks to opera’s most famous aria, Nessun Dorma, which has been performed by everyone from Luciano Pavarotti to Aretha Franklin and Jackie Evanco. In this fantasy fable setting filled with exotic splendor, Prince Calaf falls in love at first sight with the Ice Princess Turandot. She requires all her suitors to answer three riddles correctly, and all who fail are beheaded. The grandest Gulfshore Opera production to date ends the 10th anniversary season with the Naples Philharmonic.
