Story brought to life!
"The performance was spot on. The cast brought the story to life throughout allowing the audience to see how the rich and not so rich see things differently. The use of cars on stage brought that part of the story to life. We enjoyed the entire experience."

Spectacular show!
"Set design/tech department, props, costumes, pyrotechnics, choreography, orchestra, music and on stage talent were all outstanding! This adaptation from the classic Gatsby is sure to keep anyone’s attention. The comedic timing is genius. Probably don’t want to bring younger kids, but for reasons that you’d know from the book. 10/10"

Absolute Masterpiece
"This was the best show I’ve seen. The cast was amazing. Reeve Eva and Corbin were absolute showstoppers. Samantha Paulys understudy went on and she was perfect. Already planning my next trip to see it again."

The star that is Samantha Pauly
"I've read so many reviews and only a handful mention how brilliant Samantha is in this production. Yes - Eva, Reeve and Corbin are so talented and worth seeing up close, but so is Samantha! She is the comedic heart of the show, her facial reactions are everything, and she is insanely talented. Bonus points to her for being the only OBC principal that has never left the production since its premiere. Samantha truly is Jordan Baker and SHE is the must-see! "

I stepped Into Gatsby’s World and Never Wanted to Leave
"I finally saw The Great Gatsby on Broadway for my birthday yesterday with friends, and it was everything I hoped for. The music is lush, the sets and costumes are pure 1920s magic, and the love story between Gatsby and Daisy hit me right in the heart. I’ve wanted to see this musical for years and it was worth the wait. Beautiful, glamorous, and emotional. A must-see! "

An excellent production
"The Great Gatsby reaffirmed the truth that Broadway actors have to master a number of skills including acting, singing, and a wide range of dance genres. The Great Gatsby was special for the enunciation of lyrics and lines, making following the production easy. A brilliant performance by an accomplished cast. "
