HELL’S KITCHEN features music and lyrics by 16-time GRAMMY® Award winner Alicia Keys and tells a coming-of-age story set in 1990s New York City. The musical follows Ali, a 17-year-old girl searching for purpose, passion and freedom, whose life changes when a neighbor introduces her to the power of the piano. The production has been hailed as a New York Times Critic’s Pick and described as “thrilling from beginning to end — a rare must-see.”

The show is directed by four-time Tony Award nominee Michael Greif, with choreography by Tony Award nominee Camille A. Brown and a book by Pulitzer Prize finalist Kristoffer Diaz. The Original Broadway Cast Recording, a 2025 GRAMMY Award nominee for Best Musical Theater Album, is available on all major streaming platforms.

HELL’S KITCHEN plays the Saenger Theatre December 30, 2025, through January 4, 2026, with multiple performances throughout the week. For tickets, click here.
