The world premiere engagement of The Great Gatsby was the highest grossing show in Paper Mill Playhouse history. That production, which ran October 12–November 12, 2023, also broke the theater’s all-time record for ticket sales in a single day and sold out the entire run before its very first performance. The Broadway run – which started previews Friday, March 29, 2024, and opened on Thursday, April 25, 2024, at The Broadway Theatre – continued the show’s record-breaking path, twice smashing The Broadway Theatre’s box office records for weekly sales, in 2024 and 2025. Since opening, the production has played over 800 performances and sold over 1 million tickets, welcoming patrons from all 50 states and more than 100 countries. Its success has since gone global, with productions launched in London’s West End; Seoul, South Korea; and on U.S. National Tour.
