Choreographer David Baum and actress Leslie Goddard are Broadway veterans who’ve come home to Cincinnati. Goddard’s playing sweet murderess Roxie Hart; Baum’s in charge of the hot dancing that Chicago’s known for. Local directors Dee Anne Bryll and Ed Cohen are sure to make this a watchable production.
