Truly an amazing production. So glad I was fortunate to see it. I’ve loved this show since the original cast recording dropped my senior year in high school. Yes, I’m old😁

The titan track makes it so much quicker as well

I saw the ART one and i thought it was amazing.

I was in a straight show of the great Gatsby and I played Jordan down bad for Daisy and only doing the Nick thing because Daisy said she’d ought to, and anything, _anything_ for Daisy.

Wow, great news!

Okay I’m not insanely mad that the Broadway version isn’t book faithful. So many amazing movies and productions are classics and yet aren’t faithful to the messages or events of the book- think The Shining or Phantom of the Opera. Now in no way is the Broadway Gatsby as good as phantom, but I think my point still stands. It tells the story from a romantic perspective, and focuses on the glitz and glamour of it all. And we got some awesome songs out of it so I don’t really see the major issue- I know a lot of people are made over Jordan and Nick (I don’t know why tf they put them together either) or how they portrayed the Buchanans however I think overall it’s just supposed to be how it’s marketed as: The Biggest Party on Broadway

Going strictly by the bits of music and certain songs that are all I've heard of the Broadway version, I was disappointed by the music. I love the casting, but the music is lacking for me. I was intrigued by the idea of the ART version before, but after your talk, I am even more eager for a cast album for it. And as an English major and a long-time fan of the novel, the ART productiin definitely sounds more my speed. Thanks for the info!

Wow been there once as a kid didnt know. Can’t wait to go back

I don't even know what The Great Gatsby is about and somehow this video was still interesting!

A proper masterpiece of storytelling this show and the music is absolutely perfect. So glad they're filming it.

It finally found its audience it’s a shame that he isn’t around to see it take off.

It looks like they made the greasers seem like crazyyyyy poor bro did they even follow the book? I’m sorry it js looks like it sucks and won’t live up to the true outsiders name

Honestly i don't really like the score that much and the set isnt much to write home about

Did Brody become blonde mid production?

STOOPP I LOVED THIS SM I GOT PICTURES W THE CAST AND GOT THEM TO SIGN MY PLAYBOOK

I've seen a hundred shows over the years and I hated this. Over-miked, over-lit, over-produced. It's for tourists who want a BIG Broadway show. Every song is played at 11. No subtlety. Basically, unsophisticated.

The outsiders is the best! I’m seeing the musical on broadway in August!

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS MUSICAL!

The fact that people are so lazy to create a musical based off an old book twice is just so disappointing. We need more original ideas. I'm not saying the show is bad, but if you read Great Gatsby, there's nothing new.

FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE AND HADESTOWN??? ITS LIKE YOURE DESCRIBING MY DREAM

I never look in roger rabbit,s mailbox and he does not look in mine

800$ dollars

i honestly feel like this review is almost like a dramaturgically informed one, love it! subscribed :)

Thanks so much for this summation

I love the book! Should I go see it I’m going to NYC soon?

I LOVE THE OUTSIDERS MUSICALLLL IT WAS SO GOOD!!!

Bro when I was 4 we got off the ride and my dad had nail marks on his arm from me grabbing his arm so hard.

How crummy was it that The Great Gatsby wasn’t really even acknowledged at the Tony Awards tonight? What was up with that? Anyone have an explanation or theory?

Thanks have never heard of this show before and so glad that you shared the story . Sounds amazing ☺️👏👏❤

It's fun to know the art Gatsby focus a lot on the green light since Florence herself wrote a song for the Gatsby's hollywood adaptation soundtrack named Over the Love which quoted a lot (you guessed it): the green light 😆

this was an excellent breakdown of the 2 musicals,. you are very objective and very fair. thank you. I am very interested in the ART production. the current broadway production looks quite effective, just not to my taste. I love the novel. I even like a lot of the elements of the recent luhrman film. thank for this in depth look at the 2 productions. the metropolitan opera presented a modern opera back in the late 1990's which I saw. It was respectable, but it stayed safely within the story in a bland way unfortunately. it didn't really have a "take" on the story. it was more of a presentation, as opposed to an interpretation. good singers at the time-dawn upshaw, Susan graham, Jerry Hadley. The met in general doesn't like to get political or take risks. they have gotten a bit more bold as of late, but still are rather formal. thank you again for posting. I liked and subscribed.

As a literature and theater nerd, I was really disappointed by the Broadway adaptation because I felt they didn't understand or care about the story and characters at all. It's clear to me that their first priority was showing off Jeremy Jordan and Eva Noblezada's amazing talents, and the actual themes and nuance of the book weren't even taken into consideration. I thought even the music was bland and unmemorable. Hopefully they release a cast recording for the ART production because it seems really interesting!

This show is incredible.. I have seen it 3 times. The music, the acting, the sets, the lighting, the story is excellent...It is really funny too.. it is hard to watch and emotional.. but so hopeful and beautiful GO SEE IT

It's a dream

Such a wonderful description of this play... Thank you for offering us the ability to feel what we are too far from Broadway to enjoy

I really need the ART Gatsby album and/or clips of it, im so intrigued by it

The outaiders was the only school book i ever liked. Stay gold

I remember reading the book in class. Now that I found out it’s a musical, I desperately want to see it

I am seeing the tour, not sure if it’s the equity tour or non equity tour in April of 2025, but I love the pro shot and so sad I missed it on Broadway so I am happy I get to see it now cause I love it

They replaced one section of wooden track with steel. It worked better. You know the rest is coming next.

One of my favorite set pieces from the A.R.T. version is the wall of lights that gets revealed. During one song in Act 2, a set of eyes appear that look just like the cover art of the Great Gadsby book. The bar lights also reveal an NYC skyline at another moment. The most memorable songs to me were Welcome to the New World (and the reprise), New York Symphony (my personal favorite), Feels Like Hell, and Out of the Ashes.

THERE IS NO REAL ROMANCE BETWEEN DAISY AND GATSBY IN THE NOVEL.

I read The Great Gatsby book before I went to go see The Great Gatsby at papermill. (Tbh I mainly went because of my love for Jeremy Jordan and Eva Noblezada). I def agree that the papermill version focused much more on the romance. The producers of this show basically admitted that the roles of Gatsby and Daisy were written for Jeremy and Eva. I loved this adaptation and I will be going to see it on broadway in august! I can totally understand why the english majors are mad. YES, there isn't really any aspect of the original theme implemented into this version. NO, it wasn't written to do that. People need to understand that this is a modern take of the novel that will open it to new audiences.

*I finally get a video that explain me what the show is about, didn't understand a reference about her aging*

Just went to quassy

Harry potter

I think it sounds like I would be harder to do the art route because they would have to get the themes and things so spot on. I noticed that you said that everyone was covered in dirt except Gatsby and I would point out that in the book it says that Myrtle isn’t covered in the grey of the valley of ashes. Also obviously Daisy should not be covered in that.

I auditioned for crush today

I saw the ART production last night. I LOVED some of the songs so much, and the performer for Myrtle and her song in the second act were phenomenal.

Got to see the ART version tonight (June 9th) and it seems like it is WAY more polished now than when you saw it. Set, lighting, and song list all flowed incredibly well. There were some absolutely beautiful moments in the show commenting on the 1920’s and i would even say today’s social climate as well! I would go watch it over and over again if i could!!!
