The current Broadway revival of the musical Chicago, the second-longest-running Broadway show in history after The Phantom of the Opera, has announced a slate of events to celebrate its 20th anniversary year. Among the plans are redesigned costumes, Takarazuka Chicago at Lincoln Center Festival, summer concert in Central Park, an exhibit at New York Public Library for the Performing Arts and a new ad campaign.

The revival originated at the City Center Encores! series in May 1996. It transferred to Broadway November 14, 1996.
