Incredible voices and interesting character dive
"Of course voices come first for me, and this show did not disappoint. Jeremy & Eva were magical. We had a fill in for nick caraway and he was fantastic.
I also loved how they add more analysis and life to Gatsby and Daisy that I hadn’t seen in other adaptations of Gatsby."

A Roaring On… Mother Daughter Night Out
"My daughter, a sixteen year old high school theater performer, and I spent the Friday night, August 16th, in NYC at the Broadway Theatre to see The Great Gatsby. Local theater is a passion of mine, but my daughter was the driving force behind our ticket purchase. After being seated, I was pleased my daughter’s excitement turned to cheerfulness as she opened the Playbill and saw that Jeremy Jordan, Eva Noblezada, Noah J. Rickets and Samantha Pauly were casted for the night. The voices of the cast were spellbinding.
“Roaring On” and “La Dee Dah With You” exemplified the escapism of this era, highlighting the ensemble’s talent and craft. The tap dancers who heel-toed and shuffled, made the La Dee Dah scene electrifying. The Great Gatsby’s choreography and the ensemble were riveting and impressive.
The Broadway Theatre staff was friendly and helpful. The only struggle of the night was during intermission and bathrooms. Old theaters were not designed for a limited number of bathrooms with large crowds. The staff was efficient with getting the female audience through the long line in the women’s room and back to the seats before the second act started.
This show is appropriate for high school students and possibly a confident middle schooler but mature topics were the themes of the musical.
Old or new money, The Great Gatsby is a roaring good time. Hope to see you again soon Broadway… I will be looking for the green light from the New Jersey side of the sound."

Fabulous show
"This show exceeded my high expectations. The costumes, sets, and voices were exceptionally good. I cannot believe that Jeremy Jordan wasn't nominated for a Tony. His voice is terrific, hitting every note apparently effortlessly. His duets with Eva Noblezada were magical. While his part was small, Paul Whitty sang beautifully as George Wilson.
This show is a must see!!!"

Powerful!
"Incredible talent on stage - voices, dancing, fun, great music, scenery, drama, etc. Theater staff was also very good in handling those who can't resist videotaping when they weren't supposed to. Several actors were gracious to come out and sign playbills after show--most of them seemed to recognize who butters their bread! Thanks!"

"After seeing multiple shows this is of a different caliber when it comes to singing. Let’s just say these actors are it, they brought emotion out of me. I could compare it to an Opera.
Even the funny bits were genuinely funny. Kudos to this amazing production and everyone involved in it. Love love love it!!!!!"

A dream come true
"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. "
