Chicago was the first stage play I saw, and when I first encountered this kind of performance, I was very shocked. At that time, I was probably just an adult. I always wanted to dig out the hidden meaning behind every scene, every line, and every story. I kept thinking and analyzing its irony, and it was difficult to judge which scene was my favorite. Every woman in prison states her "guilt"? Was it only innocent Hungarian women who were hanged in public as a show? Or a puppet press conference run by lawyers and reporters? Wait, wait, etc., each scene can be tasted in detail. After watching it, I can't help but contact reality and start to reflect and then fall into a sad mood. However, it may be because of increased experience or too many times of watching, abandoning all connotations, just laying out the music stage and lighting are worth rewatching again and again, this is no different from an excellent stage play. The problems, all the beauty and tragedies of existence are magnified for people to see, so there is no need to grasp its meaning and then diverge thinking. I still remember the Chicago cover from a social event a few years ago. I can't say that her adaptation is not good, and I don't mean to criticize her. It's just that what it expresses is completely out of the idea of the stage play itself. It is a bit reluctant to link it up and forcibly sublime. If you think that the performance of this stage play is very good, it is understandable to use it as a reference when creating public opinion, and there is no need to over-interpret it. I hope that when I watch the stage play, I really appreciate the performance itself.
