Featuring a score of preexisting and new songs by [Alicia Keys](https://www.broadwaynews.com/alicia-keys-high-school-music-teacher-now-plays-in-the-orchestra-of-hells-kitchen/) and a Tony-nominated book by [Kristoffer Diaz](https://www.broadwaynews.com/how-the-ars-nova-play-group-influenced-four-2024-tony-award-nominees/), “Hell’s Kitchen” tells the story of New York City teenager Ali. In the coming-of-age story, Ali tries to assert her independence from her mother while discovering her piano-playing prowess. “Seeing ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ on a Broadway marquee has fulfilled one of my earliest and most influential dreams as an artist and as a New Yorker,” Keys said in a statement. “I’m overjoyed by the impact it has already had with audiences \[who\] truly mirror the world around us in New York and I am ecstatic that we can bring the show to so many incredible cities across the country. Let’s go!” “We are so excited that Alicia Keys and her team have chosen to open the North American tour of ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ in Cleveland,” said Playhouse Square president and CEO Craig Hassall. “Cleveland’s enthusiastic and diverse Broadway audiences will certainly give the show a rapturous welcome and we are so proud that we can lend our expertise and effort in making sure the tour starts off in grand fashion.” This announcement marks the second new musical of the 2023-2024 season to launch in fall 2025 from Playhouse Square.
