Everyone loves a legend – but in Chicago during the roaring twenties, there's only room for one. 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 meets up with another "Merry Murderess" Velma Kelly, who is not happy that Roxie is not only stealing her limelight but also her lawyer, Billy Flynn. Roxie and Velma both 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, lavish production numbers and “all that jazz”! For audition information click HERE.
Chicago won six Tony Awards including Best Revival and the Academy Award as Best Picture of the Year.
This production is presented through special arrangement with Samuel French.
This program is supported in part by grants from the Franklin, Mansfield, Sharon and Wrentham Cultural Councils, local agencies which are supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.

The Un-Common Theatre Company continues our 33rd season with our Spring Production of Frank Loesser and Abe Burrows’ How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying. Power, sex, ambition, greed... it's just another day at the office. From the authors of Guys And Dolls comes one of the most delightfully irreverent musicals of all time.
A satire of big business and all it holds sacred, How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying follows the rise of J. Pierrepont Finch, who uses a little handbook called "How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying" to climb the corporate ladder from lowly window washer to high-powered executive, tackling such familiar but potent dangers as the aggressively compliant "company man”, the office party, backstabbing co-workers, caffeine addiction and, of course, true love.
Following its recent Tony-winning Broadway revival in 2011 and winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, How to Succeed melds wit, comedy, and romance together to perfection and is certain to entertain all who experience it. We invite you to join us for one of the most delightfully irreverent musicals of all time.

How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
This program is supported in part by grants from the Easton, Foxboro, Franklin, Mansfield, Norfolk, Norton and Wrentham Cultural Councils, local agencies which are supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.

The Un-Common Theatre Company opens our 33rd season with our Fall Family Production of Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka. Un-Common is continuing the tradition of bringing kids and adults, parents and grandparents together on stage for a truly family-oriented theatrical experience.
This fun adventure will begin as we explore Roald Dahl’s timeless story of the world-famous candy man and his quest to find an heir. This classic comes to life in this stage adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and features the songs from the timeless family film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory including The Candy Man, Pure Imagination, I Want it Now! and I’ve got a Golden Ticket.
Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka follows the enigmatic candy manufacturer as he stages a contest by hiding five golden tickets in five of his scrumptious candy bars. Whoever comes up with these tickets will win a free tour of the Wonka factory, as well as a lifetime supply of candy. Four of the five winning children are insufferable brats: the fifth is a likeable young lad named Charlie Bucket who takes the tour in the company of his equally amiable grandfather. The children must learn to follow Mr. Wonka's rules in the factory – or suffer the consequences. This scrumdidilyumptious musical is guaranteed to delight everyone's sweet tooth.
