Book Reviews of Chicago: The Musical (Broadway Vocal Selections)Book Review: The Book Of One Of Broadway's Best
Kander and Ebb, who wrote the lyrics and music to this as well as Cabaret, Steel Pier and many others, are two of the most talented in the profession. Chicago is my second favorite muscial, losing out to Kander and Ebb's dramatic work Cabaret. Chicago is the darkest, funniest musical. The lyrics are cynical and the music is catchy. Particularly good is the song sung by the character Mary Sunshine called "A Little Bit Of Good" which is the only optimistic song in the score and is very much so, being so sacchrine that it's funny. Another favorite of mine is "Mr. Cellophane," which, when sung right, can be hilarious and, when cohreographed correctly, is even moreso. The score is perfect in my mind. "And that's good, isn't it great, isn't it fun..." it sure is.
