High school English teacher finally feel the same way APUSH Teachers felt when Hamilton came to broadway. I see it 10 years from now: Bill Nye the musical 😂
Really like Nick's actor. He's got enough stage presence I can believe he's the book narrator, but can easily see him being manipulated by Gatsby. The cast album release is on my calendar.
was so lucky to see the 2nd preview of this show - it's truly incredible. the cast is beyond talented, the music is spectacular, and the set + costumes are absolutely mesmerizing!! just waiting on that cast album in june...
Jeremy's 2nd act number is even as powerful / astonishing as Alex Newell's last season. Glad the song was not cut even if it sounds an out of place 90s anthem.
Because it is a generic Gatsby that, as much as I adore it and it is my guilty pleasure, I am aware that this musical is not a good adaptation, it is more of a Las Vegas show with generic pop and jazz than musical theater, the director even declared that he did not like it the book, Florence Welch's GATSBY is the Gatsby who understands the novel.
@@48162342 it depends mostly 5-8 a year basically it depends which show has stars I know from previous shows. Top 5 is tricky it’s Some Like It Hot , The Prom , Water for Elephants, The Outsiders and notebook I guess basically if a show was amazing to me I give it a slot in my top 5
This is the only time I have ever heard Jeremy matched for vocal talent by the whole cast in a single performance (but he's mostly singing support here)... and also the only time I have ever heard his voice falter even briefly.
Ah yes... because THAT was the biggest problem with the adaptation. The casting was great (i love Eva with all my heart and soul), but the overly romantic tone is clashing with what I read in the book. The message seems to have been lost in translation, a little. Also, your comment is giving racist. There are many other criticisms you could have gone for, and you focused on the least important.
It's not racist. You throw words around you don't know the meaning of. And yes, some of us like things presented as in the book. Hair colour is a big part of imagining a fictional character.
@@tiffytattoo2450 I believe that anytime you do a musical or book, especially if it's done in the time era , you have to be true to the book and the story.
@@schannstewart9385Does daisy being white have an overall effect on the books plot? It’s musical theater, it’s already suspension of disbelief to have people burst into song, if the race of the actors is what’s jarring to you, maybe you should stick to books instead.
미치겠네. 몰입이 안 됩니다. 개츠비가 아프리카계 미국인이었다는 설이 학계에서 주장되는 것은 알고 있었지만, 닉 캐러웨이가 아프리카계 흑인이라니...백인 주류사회의 위치에 있었던 데이지가 아시아계라는 것도 받아들이기가 쉽지 않습니다. 저는 '위대한 개츠비'를 좋아하는 한국인이고, 이 공연을 볼 기회가 있다면 꼭 볼 것입니다만 저러한 캐스팅은 참 낯설게 느껴집니다. 이러한 캐스팅 방식이 유행하는 것은 알고 있었지만요. 이것은 작품에 대한 새로운 해석이라기보다는 작품의 본질을 해치는 선택이 아닌가 싶습니다. 마음이 많이 복잡해집니다.
The reviews for this years show literally mean nothing. It's better if you just go see shows and make up your own opinion on a show. You also shouldn't be basing your opinion on a show from a review, everyone has a different perspective and art is very subjective.
Why does every musical sound like this now? Super shouty long notes and it's a period piece, why not make it sound like jazz from the 1920s? Jesus Christ.
I LOVED HOW THEIR VOICES BOTH CRACKED A LITTLE AT THE END AND THEY STARTED SMILING LIKE LOLLLLL
That “ooo” vowel being the big ending belt is cruel LOL but that was pretty funny
High school English teacher finally feel the same way APUSH Teachers felt when Hamilton came to broadway. I see it 10 years from now: Bill Nye the musical 😂
Yes!!!
tale as old as time: book gets adapated into musical and it’s darker elements get pushed to the sideline in favor of sweeping romance and spectacle
Pls stop teaching this boring ass book.
@@scoopitybooptbh check out ragtime, shit pulls spectacle and the dark dark side of the book too
@@scoopityboop is that really a common thing? I feel like a lot of musicals are very forthcoming in their darker elements
Doing this at 8 in the morning is crazy😂
Fr, I can barely get up at that time!
This is so real
Really like Nick's actor. He's got enough stage presence I can believe he's the book narrator, but can easily see him being manipulated by Gatsby. The cast album release is on my calendar.
Noah J. Ricketts! He is one of my favorite Broadway performers. He is also in the Showtime series Fellow Travellers!
@user-xc5cg1pe3q Keeping an eye out for him and thanks for the rec.
Noah is amazing he was in frozen even though I saw Jelani Aladdin I heard amazing things about Noah
6/21 the cast album is coming (It’s also gonna be on the same day I see it)
@zackstark24601 That's who I saw too; thanks for the idea of his vocal range. Hopefully there's a Noah and Jeremy duet.
“He had the world at his feet, oooh he made the summer beat” is stuck in my head lol

Dazzling production!
I wanna see this so bad. I wonder when we’ll get the slime tutorial.
I’m just patiently waiting for the cast recording
It exists somewhere
You need to see it in person! It's dazzling!
@@MatthewHardyMusical sometimes that’s not possible b/c of location.
I just saw it yesterday and got everyone’s signatures on my playbill I wanna go back 😭😭❤️❤️
Holy fricken smack! Jeremy and Eva Nobleza!!! How are we so blessed? Love them. Amazing work.
Was fortunate enough to see this opening night and it's absolutely phenomenal. I can't wait to see it again!
JEREMY'S FALSETTO I'M MELTING 😍😍😍
Jeremy's 2nd act number is even as powerful / astonishing as Alex Newell's last season. Glad the song was not cut even if it sounds an out of place 90s anthem.
All is forgiven when Jeremy lets loose the vocal fireworks.
Oh my god the ensemble is phenomenal!
wow this is amazing!!! the choreo, costumes, music, omggg😭 I need to see the show asap!❤
I’m shocked the show only received 1 Tony nomination! This was really good and fun! Maybe it was just a stacked year…
Me too. Should have gotten noms for choreo, set and orchestrations at the very least.
@@MatthewHardyMusicaltotally agree
Yes it was truly underrepresented- it’s so stacked with talent!
Because it is a generic Gatsby that, as much as I adore it and it is my guilty pleasure, I am aware that this musical is not a good adaptation, it is more of a Las Vegas show with generic pop and jazz than musical theater, the director even declared that he did not like it the book, Florence Welch's GATSBY is the Gatsby who understands the novel.
@@clcris Can't wait to see the second Gatsby!
this really deserved more tony nominations especially for choreography
RIGHT?!?!?! I don't get it!
I love eva sm!! saw her 3 times in Hadestown and she’s just incredible!
Dude they’re literally so crisp
The costuming looks fantastic.
They did win a Tony for it.
So amazing to see this show get attention!
This made me want to read the great gatsby
I wish Jeremy will stay on Broadway forever !
Don't watch any television shows or movies he's in and he will!
This looks soo good ❤
All time favorite 😊😊😊
Can’t wait to see this next month will be my 78th show I’m seeing on Broadway overall
78th??? How many shows do you see every year damn? Also what are your top 5 of all time right now?

I wish I could hear a Broadway Cast Recording of this show soon!! This sounds TERRIFIC!!!!
The chemistryyy
0:12 started my favourite song
Watched it on Broadway last week and it was fantastic!
But come on, GMA, video quality and resolutions at 720p in Year 2024? Really?
Amazing 👏 🤩
JACK KELLY ❤❤❤
I have goosebumps!
I saw this at papermill playhouse and im glad cuz it was like $60 cheaper 😂😂😂
cool song. Has a bit of a Chicago vibe
This is the only time I have ever heard Jeremy matched for vocal talent by the whole cast in a single performance (but he's mostly singing support here)... and also the only time I have ever heard his voice falter even briefly.
Does anybody know the sound’s origin?
Jeremy Jordan is ligit daddy
Hmmm. Not yet. Give him a few more years.
HELP 😭
They did noah so dirty in the thumbnail 😭
THIS SONNGGG
Any one seen this show already? DO you recommend?
I wish I had heard the cast recording before I saw it. I definitely appreciated it more after I heard the music.
❤❤❤❤
Wish they performed in tony awards
What's going on that last note? Sounds painfully scratchy
I think she might’ve been sick or something, normally it sounds super tight! Just an unfortunate time to have an off day haha
So few singers know how to avoid damaging their cords.
It’s hard for them to sing really early in the morning. She said she’s okay now!!
It's because they're singing at 8am without enough time to properly warm up
You try singing that song that early in the morning, and then let us know how it goes.
The room where it happened, room wh- OOP WRONG MUSICAL
Love them both and the cast but is anyone going to talk about where their voices cracked??? lol
was this shot on a potato why is the quality so bad
My thoughts exactly... the way I asked aloud if we're stuck in 2011 😅
Not y’all changing the audio at the end to your pre-recorded vocals instead of the live performance🤭
Idk if you hear him struggling on the last note. I don’t think that’s pre recorded 😂
Here come the headlines!
"How could it not be a smash success?"
Uh, how about bc the book was boring, just like all the movies?
Yeah it's a bit of an odd choice for a musical
book was awful, show looks amazing, I kinda want to watch it on broadway, but tickets are too damn expensive
Daisy is described as blonde in the book
Ah yes... because THAT was the biggest problem with the adaptation. The casting was great (i love Eva with all my heart and soul), but the overly romantic tone is clashing with what I read in the book. The message seems to have been lost in translation, a little.

Well I still enjoyed the show, so who gives a fuck about a few reviews.
@@48162342 Evidently the Tony's did

Laughable.
your profile pic is laughable.
your existence is laughable 💀
why is it laughable?
2:41 - THAT SHOULD’VE BEEN ME WITH JEREMY (Totally not delusional :3)
