About:

Experience the dazzling spectacle and heartbreak of the Jazz Age in this new Broadway musical adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel, The Great Gatsby.


Set amidst the opulent mansions and intoxicating parties of Long Island’s wealthy elite in the summer of 1922, the story follows the young Nick Carraway as he is drawn into the enigmatic world of his wealthy neighbor, Jay Gatsby. Gatsby, known for his lavish, weekly parties, harbors a singular, obsessive goal: to recapture his lost love, the beautiful, elusive Daisy Buchanan.


With a vibrant, jazz-infused score, the musical captures the glamour, recklessness, and moral decay of the roaring twenties. It is a thrilling examination of the American Dream, asking whether the past can ever truly be repeated and what happens when illusion clashes with reality.


Directed by Marc Bruni (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical), this story of extravagance and longing features choreography by Dominique Kelley (So You Think You Can Dance), a book by Kait Kerrigan (The Mad Ones) and a jazz- and pop-influenced original score by Jason Howland (Little Women) and Nathan Tysen (Paradise Square).


Don't miss this epic, romantic tragedy that holds a mirror up to the eternal longing for a life that glitters.
