Paul Lisnek, Curtain Call"A feast for the senses, including stunning dance routines, glamorous, Tony Award-winning costumes and a steady streak of soaring, jazzy pop songs"
Chicago Concert ReviewTHE PARTY’S ROARING IN WASHINGTON D.C.!
THE GREAT GATSBY is a “Broadway extravaganza that explodes with life and energy” (Entertainment Weekly). Based on the classic American novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the Tony Award®-winning new musical is an unforgettable journey of love, wealth and tragedy that brings the Roaring Twenties to life on stage.
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).
