‘The Great Gatsby’ Musical to Launch North American Tour in 2026
“The Great Gatsby” musical will launch a North American tour beginning in early 2026.
The production is set to kick off with a one-week engagement at Baltimore’s Hippodrome Theatre from January 31 to February 7, 2026. From there, the show is slated to travel to more than 50 cities across the U.S.
Among the confirmed stops are Dallas and Cleveland, with additional dates and casting details to be announced in the coming months.
“As we celebrate the centennial of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s timeless story, we couldn’t be more thrilled for the next chapter of our journey,” said producer Chunsoo Shin. “The Great Gatsby has been embraced with incredible enthusiasm on Broadway, and now audiences across North America will have the chance to experience the magic of this production. With generations already familiar with the novel and its film adaptations, I’m beyond excited for theatergoers to witness the glitz and glamour of musical theatre at its finest.”

The musical adaptation, based on Fitzgerald’s 1925 novel, features a book by Kait Kerrigan, music and lyrics by Nathan Tysen and Jason Howland, and choreography by Dominique Kelley.

The Broadway production creative team includes scenic and projection design by Paul Tate de Poo III, costume design by Linda Cho, and lighting design by Cory Pattak.
