Broadway star Corbin Bleu is set to make his West End debut as Nick Carraway in The Great Gatsby: A New Musical at the London Coliseum. The highly anticipated production will run from 11 April to 7 September 2025.
Best known for his role as Chad Danforth in Disney’s High School Musical trilogy, Bleu has built an impressive stage career, starring in Broadway productions such as In the Heights, Godspell, Holiday Inn, and Kiss Me, Kate. Last year he played Seymour in the off-Broadway run of Little Shop of Horrors at the West Side Theatre, and played The Producer for one-night only in Gutenberg! The Musical! at the James Earl Jones Theatre on Broadway.
His screen credits include Flight 29 Down, One Life to Live, Camp Hideout, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, Remember Me: The Mahalia Jackson Story as well as a memorable run on Dancing with the Stars, where he finished as runner-up in season 17.
Bleu joins a star-studded cast, including Jamie Muscato as Jay Gatsby and Frances Mayli McCann as Daisy Buchanan, Amber Davies (Pretty Woman) as Jordan Baker, Joel Montague (Hamilton) as George Wilson, John Owen-Jones (Les Misérables) as Meyer Wolfsheim, Jon Robyns (Phantom of the Opera) as Tom Buchanan and Rachel Tucker (Sunset Boulevard, Wicked) as Myrtle Wilson. The musical, featuring a jazz- and pop-infused score by Jason Howland and Nathan Tysen, is directed by Marc Bruni and adapted by Kait Kerrigan from F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel.
The Great Gatsby promises to bring the glitz and glamour of the Roaring Twenties to the West End stage.
