The Great Gatsby: The Complete Book and Lyrics of the Broadway Musical

"This production is a big, bold, Broadway version of The Great Gatsby. It's thrilling to see these indelible characters and iconic moments from the novel come to life on stage. This stage production, which honors the novel and its history while also speaking clearly to today's audiences, is a terrific new iteration of this classic work."
The Estate of F. Scott Fitzgerald

The party's roaring on Broadway! Since opening at the Broadway Theatre in April 2024, The Great Gatsby has become one of the defining large-scale musicals of its generation, transforming F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic into a lavish, modern stage event. With a sweeping score by Jason Howland and Nathan Tysen and a boldly theatrical book by Kait Kerrigan, this production embraces the full glamour, excess, and aching romance of the Jazz Age-powered by contemporary musical storytelling built for today's global audience.

A true worldwide theatrical phenomenon, The Great Gatsby had a hit summer 2025 run in London's West End at the London Coliseum achieving the rare feat of simultaneous productions in New York, London, and Seoul ahead of a North American tour extending Gatsby's glittering reach across new stages and new audiences.
