"Loved the set, the singers, the dancers, the costumes, the theatre. It was Gatsby Lite, without a doubt, but very worthy musical theatre rendition, nonetheless"

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. "

Amazing
"This is the type of show that gives a Broadway musical the fabulous reputation that Broadway musicals have! I could’ve asked for a few stronger songs, but the performances, costumes, sets, energy, and everything else was absolutely amazing!"

Great show! Definitely recommend.
"I am a broadway lover and this definitely met my expectations and slightly surpassed them. Daisy had an amazing voice and really played the character well. I think the overall casting was great."

Was he really Great, old Sport?
"What a fun-loving musical! Top-rating cast, crew, ensemble and stage presence… so amazed at how well connected everyone was together!
Keep in mind of the change halfway through to a dark undertone about the cost of fame and love from the beginning numbers.
However, Jeremy Jordan’s solos will have you loving his voice over and over again in your dreams! "

Do not ban 'The Great Gatsby' from your Broadway show list!
"As an American that suffered through weeks of lessons on the symbolism in F Scot Fitzgerald's, The Great Gatsby, in high school English lit, I was prepared for the darkest moments of this stage adaptation. Too bad this novel is banned in some schools these days. Lessons in avoiding the consequences of obsession, class difference, adultry, and suicide are best learned in the safe, boring, school rooms being drilled with symbolism of ever and all seeing eyes.
What I was not prepared for was, finally understanding Gatsby's deep, emotional obsession for Daisy. Jeremy Jordan is well deserved of the applause and shrieks from the young women in the audience as he takes the stage. His delivery of song, "I did it all for Daisy", took me back 40 years, and I finally understood the spark that set off the series of tragic events in the novel. There was no way my English teacher, in front of the chalk board, could have explained this to our 16 year old selves.
Although you will not leave this show humming any of the tunes, you will leave satisfied with the complete package- costumes, staging, dancing, story telling. The spectacle of the decadent jazz age and callousness of the "upper class".
Chilina Kennedy, as Myrtle, has one of the best numbers in the show. Eva Noblezada, her voice divine, her portrayal of not so innocent, actually quite callous Daisy- spot on. Noah Ricketts, as Nick, he has the most difficult job in the cast and sews the story together- Bravo!
Only regret, wish the style of the music reflected more of the Jazz age. "

Simply entertaining
"While sadly we lost about 30 minutes of the show due to the heavy traffic in NY brought about by the heavy rains at that time, our sadness was quickly replaced with joy and amusement as soon as we watched the performance onstage. The performers were incredible in their acting, singing and dancing. The plot was easy to grasp and over-all the show was just awesome. I watched it with my family and we all loved it! "
