Ann Reinking's Legacy in Chicago

Ann Reinking's iconic portrayal in "All That Jazz" and "Chicago," characterized by her signature bowler hat, remains a defining element of Bob Fosse's choreography. This distinctive style is evident in memorable musical numbers such as "Steam Heat," "Mein Herr," and "Blackbird." In a recent interview, Ana Villafae, the current actress playing Roxie Hart on Broadway, shares her experience of donning Reinking's famous hat.

Broadway's "Chicago" is set to continue its run at the Ambassador Theatre with performances featuring a new cast. The lineup includes Bianca Marroqun as Velma Kelly, Ana Villafae as Roxie Hart, Lillias White as Matron "Mama" Morton, and Paulo Szot as Billy Flynn. The ensemble cast will also feature a talented group of performers, ensuring a vibrant and dynamic theatrical experience.
