Crime rarely pays,but Chicago Tribune reporter Maurine Dallas Watkins'coverage of the 1924 murder trials of twice-divorced cabaret singer Belva Gaertner and motel la undry bookkeeper Beulah Sheriff Annan-"the beauty of the cell block"-inadvertently led to the creation of Chicago,the longest running American musical in Broadway history.Femme fatales,show-stopping songs,intricate choreography and 1920s glamour merge into a show that has been described as Broadway's sure thing,and will be taking over Shanghai Cultural Square for ten dates staring February 4.
