Here’s what we think: Review by Headout

Glitz, glam, and a grand Gatsby affair. Fitzgerald's quintessential tale of love, loss, and the American Dream has made a triumphant return to the stage, and the result is nothing short of mesmerizing. The lavish celebration of love dazzles from the moment the curtain rises, transporting audiences straight into the Jazz Age.

I just saw this show a few hours ago. And right now, I would say it was the best Broadway performance I have ever seen. This show hits every single mark. The performers were extraordinary. Jeremy Jordan is world-class. The singing was EXCEPTIONAL. Every single performer sang like a god—pure talent. Eva Noblezada was fabulous as well. She has a beautiful voice and truly brings the character to life. In this production, Tom Buchanan was played by Austin Colby. Colby looks exactly like the character and skillfully conveys the arrogance inherent in that role. I cannot imagine a better Buchanan. Exceptional. Noah Rickets was fantastic as Tom—believable, and at times, heartbreaking. Samantha Pauly—a PHENOMENAL singer, dancer, and actress—lit up the stage. Eric Anderson is a standout performer who delivered a superb performance. This is a story brimming with emotion, featuring complex characters who exhibit various moral failings and flaws. It is packed with social commentary and potential life lessons. And the production does an EXCEPTIONAL job of bringing every single quality of this show to life—and does so in a truly stunning fashion. These are highly skilled and dedicated performers who project their characters' emotions with power and unwavering consistency. Their performances are so good, they’ll bring you to tears.

Filled my childhood dream to go to Empire State Building as first I saw the building was in Superman from 70s. This first trip to New York as was my 50th on the 19th of March few days before seeing Empire State Building coming the UK. Very Happy 50th year old. 😀

Madama Butterfly

Experience
Maria Francisca Sanz Valero
One of the best operas I've ever heard. And not just musically—the set design and costumes really made an impression on us. The Met is one of the world's finest opera houses. I recommend arriving early to enjoy the spectacle of the audience's attire: it felt like we were at the Oscars.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Experience
Julia Kiefl-Spitzer
Everything about this play was unforgettable. The theater is breathtaking. The energy of others being able to see the play as well fills the room. Seeing the decorations they set out for guests to interact with were amazing. The play itself was magical and incredible. Even my husband was in awe with how they managed to do some of the things for it. We absolutely would go back to watch it again. The best part was being able to go while Tom Felton was acting as Draco once more. Then getting to see him exit the theater and ask for his autograph was the cherry on top!

Wicked

Experience
Brandee Lake
I had a fantastic experience using Headout to book tickets for Wicked on Broadway. The app made it easy to find exactly what I was looking for, and the booking process was completely seamless. The real highlight? I scored incredible orchestra seats near the front just two days before the show. The view was perfect, and the value for the price was unbeatable. Smooth, reliable, and great last-minute options—I’ll definitely be using Headout again.

Death Becomes Her

Experience
Gary Daniel Wadkins
I was curious to see how they were going to adapt the movie, and wondered if the dark humor would be glossed over. It didn't take long to have those concerns addressed and taken away! This is a funny show. The acting is excellent and the songs are very well done. We enjoyed every single minute. Bravo to the cast and crew! A+

Amazing experience! The show is incredible, the atmosphere on stage spilled into the seats. There were a few changes in the cast which took nothing away from the quality.
