I see why so many raved about this play!
"There were so many aspects of The Great Gatsby that made it so memorable. The set designs were beautiful, the creativity around the use of "certain props" (I don't want to give it away) were so well done, and the costumes were elegant representing the fashion trends of the roaring 20's. The acting and singing just drew you into the pathos of the story. I've been seeing a Broadway show with my daughter one a month since last year and this is one show you should put on your list to experience. "

A magical musical
"Since the beginning the performance is 5 stars. You are captivated from the first moment for the music, the dancing, the acting, the beauty of the costumes. The script is excellent, exposing the drama in all Fitzgerald's intentions but allowing the marvel of the musical to embrace you completely."

World Class Performance
"I’m not a musical person and only came to the show to take my oldest daughter who enjoys performing arts. Come to find out it was one of the most incredible experiences I have had in a long time. The singing was incredible, dancing was perfect, costumes were top notch. I would love to come visit from California again when I can."

Fantastic Voices
"This show was so much better than I had anticipated. Jeremy Jordan is a powerful performer with an awesome voice. We were on the 3rd row, far left orchestra, and still had a good view. The sets are also beautiful and evoke that time period. I would recommend it to teens and adults who love a timeless story. "

This show is a must-see! One of the best I’ve seen.
"The show was all-around fantastic but a few key highlights were as follows,
The sets, set design, and the costumes were wonderfully crafted and truly set the tone. Very aesthetically appealing and era appropriate.
The ensemble was very talented and provided such amazing performances.
The actor that portrayed Nick was incredible as well as his Counterpart Jordan, she was truly magnetic and demanded the spotlight.
Jay Gatsby was very talented. A strong vocalist and actor, though at times certain lines were difficult to follow from lack of enunciation. Overall outstanding performance nonetheless.
On the downside, in the beginning of the show the volume of the ensemble was overpowering the singing of Nick, but seemingly the issue was corrected.
Highly entertaining and will be recommending to family and friends! "

So if you didn’t read the book…
"The costumes are spot on, the set design is Tony-worthy, and the acting is excellent. I went in thinking how can you make a musical out of this story? So if you didn’t read the book, it’s like a Cliff Notes version set to music and it works. "
