The Reviews For The Great Gatsby Are In!

Step into the roaring twenties at the London Coliseum!
With Broadway-worthy songs by Tony Award nominees Jason Howland (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Little Women), a book by Jonathan Larson, and direction from award-winning Marc Bruni (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical), this stylish new take on F. Scott Fitzgerald's American classic dazzles with choreography and a starry cast- including Jamie Muscato, Corbin Bleu, and Frances Mayli McCann. Centred on the mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby, who hosts riotous parties for the rich and famous at his Long Island mansion, the production has certainly got the critics talking. But was the party a hit - or did no one show up?
The Great Gatsby Critic Reviews
"It probably won't please literary purists, but it will delight a broad audience, and even those resistant to the unashamedly corny will likely be won over by the breathtaking look and strident performances in this feat of spectacle and seduction." - The Stage
"With impeccable performances, intricate dance sequences and grand costume design, The Great Gatsby is a must-watch for musical theatre aficionados. And, no doubt, it's a party Gatsby himself would be proud of." - The Upcoming
"Boasting a production design to which every future glamorous' musical will be compared, a cast of bona fide West End superstars performing at the top of their game, and crucially two and half hours with not a hint of boredom... has anybody really been shortchanged?" - Musical Theatre Review
"The Great Gatsby Musical at the London Coliseum is a full-throttle feast of spectacle and drama which makes for an enjoyable watch overall." - Theatre & Tonic
"Kait Kerrigan's accessible book hurtles through the action, adding brisk explanations for the characters' various dilemmas. In particular, she beefs up the female voices an admirable intent, especially when it comes to Daisy, who is often depicted as a shallow socialite and a prize to be fought over." - London Theatre
