Description: Chicago, Sassy, kooky and sporting plenty up front, Ms Sweeney makes the jailbird Roxie her own in this tale set in Al Capone's home town. Okay, she couldn't have killed anyone in a million years and she doesn't have the timing or training of, say, Ruthie Henshall, but hers is still a joyous debut of pure charm. Her stage and prison rival Velma Kelly, played by the leggy and lithe Leigh Zimmerman, gives her a run for her money.Four years on, this production may have become the show for the tired businessman, with cloned staging around the world from Mexico to Buenos Aires to Düsseldorf, but as live theatre it's still got that old razzle-dazzle." The Express"...Could Claire hack it in this sexy mayhem of lingerie, black leather and bad behaviour?... She does well. She knows the steps. She sings the notes, Pure Chicago!
