"The cast, the music, the set. From top to bottom, this musical epitomized what a Broadway show should be. All the glitz, glamour, pomp, and circumstance you could want in a show. If you can see only one, this is it. Truly an experience. "

"An outstanding production and a simply wonderful performance by the cast. This show was one of the best overall that I have seen in quite some time. I am from California but come to New York often. I attend approximately 7-10 Broadway performances per year. This one ranks among one of my very favorites and I have seen some fantastic shows over the years. I highly recommend you catch this one if you can. "

"I loved everything about it! The talent, costumes, sets, and dancing! Everything was fantastic and I’d love to see it again. We prepped our theater loving kids ahead of time and they all loved it too (ages 11, 9, and 7)."

"It was mine and my boyfriend’s first time in NYC. We had to see a Broadway show before leaving to travel back home. We chose this one since we enjoyed the original Great Gatsby movie from the 70’s and also the newer one with Leonardo DiCaprio. This was THE best play I’ve ever seen. The amount of detail that went into this show from the costumes, the props, the lighting was truly amazing. Every single person throughout the play was so very talented with their dancing and singing. The venue was very nice and clean. Staff was very friendly. I would highly recommend this show to anyone!

"The glitz, the glam, the feathers, the fireworks, and the absolute gluttony was real. The show had everything a Broadway show needed: phenomenal voices, great dance numbers, lyrics that stick in your brain, beautiful sets and costumes (and some really fantastically smart changes to both) and surprises. There were a few moments I thought the lighting was clunky, but by the end of the first act, it was perfect, and did not miss. The Great Gatsby had just enough direct quotes from the F. Scott Fitzgerald work to justify your AP American Literature teacher's field trip request, and just enough modern synthesizing that I found myself wanting to revisit the text. "

"This was one of the best experiences of New York. I have visited NYC many times and kept putting the Broadway off, till my wife insisted this time. And what a show we selected to see. The Great Gatsby was simply spectacular, with an ever relevant timeless story, eye-popping stage transformations, beautiful soulful renditions, and an amazing cast that just drew every bit of their audience's attention to their performance. I just wish it never ended. The whole experience went way beyond my expectations and was worth every bit of the money we spent on the tickets."

"The costumes, staging, and sharing a timeless story through theater was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Highly recommend. Given the premise of the entire story- adultery, greed, illegal activity- I’m not sure it’s for kids. The themes, however, are ever present. A wonderful rendition of a classic story—so beautifully done! "

"The incredible talent in the amazing case alone is reason enough to go see this show. The way they are all able to belt, growl, and sing with the emotion of the character as the story unfolds. Costume and set design were both top tier, with no details missed. Let’s hear it for the amazing orchestra who filled the room with impeccable melodies as the show progressed. "

"Every performer was outstanding! Noah Ricketts is a scene-stealer! The opening number with Noah and the Company set the expectation and I was not disappointed! Of course, Jeremy Jordan has an incredible voice...but his interpretation and emotion in "For Her" was show-stopping...STRONGLY encourage anyone debating on buying tickets...stop debating ...Buy those tickets!!!"
