As a fairly regular theater goer, most stages are pretty spare with props and rely heavily on the actors + choreography. And I mean, Chicago IS a musical. Musicals traditionally have no dialogue at all, such at Movin' Out, the play based on Billy Joel's music. If you wanted dialogue, a musical really isn't what you're looking for.
