"I saw Gatsby for the first time on July 21st as part of a workshop I attended. By intermission I was already searching dates that I could come back and bring my family. I am not speaking in hyperbole when I say I could not feel my face at the end of the first act. I was blown away. Jeremy Jordan is an American treasure. Being in the room while he brings this character to life is the stuff of fairy tales. I'm not entirely sure he is of this world....he may be working actual magic. Eva Noblezada is a powerhouse and inspiration. What a privilege to see her work. At both performances I attended, Dan Rosales played Nick. He was OUTSTANDING and so kind after the show. We love Dan!
I knew I had to get my kids (both aspiring Broadway actors) back to see this show with the original cast. My son idolizes JJ, and when he took the stage on Aug 9th, my kid experienced "the best day" of his life. Seeing his idol in person is something he will never forget. My daughter openly cried (as did I, numerous times) at the beauty of it all. They both were able to meet the cast after the show, and everyone was so incredibly humble and kind. Eva was particularly gracious to my daughter, and my son hasn't stopped smiling that he was able to stand next to Jeremy and get his autograph. The entire experience was magic. Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to make this show a reality. I cannot recommend it highly enough. I'd be back tomorrow if I could. The sets, costumes, orchestration, design, choreography...all of it is exactly what you want from a Broadway show. It exceeded expectations in every way and created life long memories for us. "

"Amazing and well done. The stage will never be recreated again as it is here. Go now! I didn’t love the story changes personally as an avid fan of the book but you can’t go wrong with jeremy Jordan and Eva. And Jordan’s character was a hoot. "

"I loved every minute of it. Costumes and scenery were spectacular. I brought my teenage daughters to see Jeremy Jordan as Gatsby because they absolutely loved him in Newsies. He did not disappoint. Well worth the trip to NYC to see him in the show. A few other leads were played by understudies and everyone was equally amazing. The entire show was engaging. "

"A magnificent production!!! Big set design… we were instantly transported into the era the story was set in, excellent musical score and dance numbers, we had our 14-year old attend and had lots to ask him about where he thought Gatsby’s money came from, how he felt about what the couples were doing and the life choices they made in the end etc.
As parents, when we look at these type of Broadway shows together with our teenager, it allows us to open a door in our post discussion to speak freely about uncomfortable “life” situations. Our Son now wants to buy the book!! "
