Why see Hells Kitchen?
The Diary of Alicia Keys? Almost!
Nominated for 13 2024 Tony Awards!
This all-new inspirational musical is now showing on Broadway, beginning performances at Broadway's Shubert Theatre in March. Created by playwright and Pulitzer Prize finalist Kristoffer Diaz and scored by Alicia Keys. Largely drawn from the award-winning singer's own story, the Hells Kitchen is based on Keys' own life growing up in the Bronx. Maleah Joi Moon won the 2024 Tony for Best Leading Actress in a Musical for her role, with Kecia Lewis winning Best Featured Actress in a Musical.
What Is The Story?
Seventeen-year-old Ali dreams of a life beyond the humdrum she has now. A chance meeting and unheralded friendships stoke the aspirational fire in her heart and set her on a path to greatness.
A hit at its Off-Broadway premiere in fall 2023, don't miss this chance to catch Hell's Kitchen on the Great White Way.

Reviews
Critic's review
Grounded in reality, but with anthemic melodies soaring overhead, it is easily the best new musical at the Public since Hamilton.
