Details:
Murder, media, and a spotlight that never dims.
Join us on December 4, 2026 at 6 PM for a screening of Chicago (1927), the sharp and stylish silent crime satire directed by Cecil B. DeMille. Based on the hit Broadway play, the film follows Roxie Hart, a chorus girl who turns her own scandal into headline news—captivating the public and manipulating the system every step of the way.
As lawyers, journalists, and spectators turn her trial into pure spectacle, Chicago delivers a darkly funny and surprisingly modern critique of fame, justice, and the public’s obsession with sensational stories. Bold, biting, and endlessly entertaining, it’s a film that still feels strikingly relevant.
This event is free and open to the public, but seating is limited.
