Sony Masterworks Broadway announces the forthcoming Original Broadway Cast Recording of The Great Gatsby, the acclaimed new musical adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's landmark novel presented by award-winning Korean Producer Chunsoo Shin and starring Tony Award-nominated Broadway sensations Jeremy Jordan (Newsies, Smash) and Eva Noblezada (Hadestown, Miss Saigon). Featuring an electrifying jazz- and pop-infused score with music and lyrics by Tony Award nominees Jason Howland (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Little Women) and Nathan Tysen (Paradise Square), and a book by Jonathan Larson Grant winner Kait Kerrigan (The Mad Ones).

F. Scott Fitzgerald's timeless, seminal novel comes to the Broadway musical stage for the first time ever, in the "dazzling, lush and bewitching production" (New York Times), The Great Gatsby. Transporting audiences to the lavish Roaring Twenties, the story follows eccentric and mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby, who will stop at nothing in the pursuit of the lost love of his youth, Daisy Buchanan. Through its fascinatingly nuanced characters — driven by complex inner lives, erupting with extravagance and longing — this epic tale has always been destined to sing. Now, it finally comes to life on the greatest American stage, through an electrifying jazz and pop-infused score, and a grand production befitting the 21st century.

One of the most popular novels of all time, The Great Gatsby is a New York Times and USA Today perennial best seller. It has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide since its release in 1925 and continues to sell more than 500,000 per year. The novel has been translated into over 42 different languages, and has been adapted into television shows, radio plays, video games, and multiple films — including the acclaimed Baz Luhrmann feature film starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

Chunsoo Shin, the lead producer of The Great Gatsby musical, says, "I am passionate about producing this show because it provides a modern audience with the true essence of idealism that is expressed eloquently in the novel and now on stage. The Great Gatsby is a masterpiece that grows and changes as it's experienced by each new generation, in every culture, and people — and yet, still maintains its uniqueness, with its fascinating characters that burst with vitality. The entire team behind The Great Gatsby is beyond thrilled to present this timeless, glamourous, and resplendent production on Broadway — that is becoming even more refined, resonant, and expressive, following our world premiere production."
