On Your Feet!, the new Broadway musical based on the life story of seven-time GRAMMY winning international superstar Gloria Estefan and her husband, nineteen-time GRAMMY winning producer-musician-entrepreneur Emilio Estefan, opens on Broadway on Thursday, November 5, 2015, following preview performances beginning Monday, October 5, 2015 at the Marquis Theatre.

On Wednesday, October 7th Gabrielle's Angel Foundation will be hosting a special preview performance, which will feature a VIP pre-show cocktail reception where guests will have the chance to meet Gabrielle's Angel Foundation co-founder Denise Rich, Angel Ambassador and actress Selenis Leyva and Emilio & Gloria Estefan before enjoying the show from fantastic orchestra seats.

The musical, directed by two-time Tony Award winner Jerry Mitchell (Kinky Boots, Hairspray) and choreographed by Olivier Award winner Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys, Memphis) with an original book by Academy Award winner Alexander Dinelaris (Birdman, The Bodyguard Musical), lands on Broadway following a world premiere summer engagement at the Oriental Theatre in Chicago.

The On Your Feet! Broadway performance schedule is Monday-Saturday at 8:00PM, with matinees on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 2:00PM. Beginning November 9, the regular performance schedule is Tuesday at 7:00PM and Wednesday-Saturday at 8:00PM, with matinees on Wednesdays (2:00PM), Saturdays (2:00PM), and Sundays (3:00PM).

Emilio and Gloria Estefan have sold over 100 million records, won more than two dozen GRAMMY Awards, and sold out stadiums across the world - but their music is only half the story. From the heart of Havana to the streets of Miami came a cultural phenomenon unlike anything the music industry had ever seen. ON YOUR FEET! is a new Broadway musical that follows the Estefans' journey to superstardom, set to their chart-topping, smash hits, including "Rhythm Is Gonna Get You," "Conga," "1-2-3," "Get On Your Feet," "Mi Tierra," Don't Want To Lose You Now," and "Reach," in addition to an original song written by Gloria and her daughter Emily Estefan.
