In the roaring 20s Chicago, chorine 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 and another "Merry Murderess" Velma Kelly vie for the spotlight and the headlines. They ultimately join forces in search of the "American Dream": fame, fortune, and acquittal.
