We love a good party! BroadwayWorld's Opening Night Coverage is being presented by THE GREAT GATSBY — a new musical roaring onto Broadway this spring! Starring Jeremy Jordan (Newsies) as Jay Gatsby and Eva Noblezada (Hadestown) as Daisy Buchanan, this "lush, bewitching, and dazzling" (The New York Times) production is a party you do not want to miss!

"The show is about 17-year-old Ali, who is looking for her way and feeling  rebellious and trying to find where she belongs, while being raised by an overprotective single mother. I want all of these young girls to see themselves [in this character]. I want young people to be able to come to this show and feel like it belongs to them. I want veterans to be able to say that this is so special," said Alicia Keys on Saturday, April 20. 

Keys had a lot to feel special about over the weekend when Hell's Kitchen officially opened on Broadway. The new musical, conceived by Keys, has music and lyrics by Keys, and book by Pulitzer Prize finalist Kristoffer Diaz. The show also features music supervision by Emmy and Grammy Award winner Adam Blackstone, music consulting by two-time Tony and Emmy winner Tom Kitt, choreography by Tony Award nominee Camille A. Brown and direction by Tony Award nominee Michael Greif.

There’s a place where the rhythm of the city is music, where every corner has a story, and every window is a kaleidoscope. Where a girl can step out of her apartment and find the world. That’s Hell’s Kitchen, a new musical from 16-time Grammy Award winner Alicia Keys that’s about to make Broadway feel brand new.
