Alicia Keys’ Musical “Hell’s Kitchen” Set for Broadway Debut
Alicia Keys’ musical, “Hell’s Kitchen,” based on her life, is set to make its Broadway debut in the spring. Currently playing at the Public Theater until January 14, the musical will transfer to the Shubert Theater on Broadway starting March 28, with an opening night scheduled for April 20.
In a statement, Alicia expressed, “Good things take time, and for 13 years, I’ve been dreaming, developing, and finding inspiration for a musical based on my experience growing up in Hell’s Kitchen, NYC. Hell’s Kitchen is inspired by my life, but it’s not a biographical story. It’s a story about family relationships and identity: Who are we? Who do we want to be? Who are we becoming?”
She continued, “The score features new songs that I’m really excited to get out into the world alongside many of my album releases that you know but you’ve never heard like this – rearranged and reinterpreted.”
The musical is scored by the award-winning singer, and the book is written by Kristoffer Diaz. The Broadway cast has not yet been announced.
In addition to her success in the arts, Alicia Keys has had a significant year in business. She recently filed a trademark to launch a new tea brand, “Alicia Teas,” inspired by a gift from her husband, Swizz Beatz. Swizz had gifted her a brand of tea bags in 2020, declaring that the brand would one day be sold in Starbucks locations globally.
The new tea brand, “Alicia Teas,” is expected to make its debut, although the exact launch date is currently unclear.
In September, Alicia reciprocated the thoughtful gesture by taking Swizz on a birthday trip to France to celebrate his 45th birthday. The celebration included family and friends, including Pharrell, at a chateau in the Cognac region, featuring a dinner with fresh fish, sushi, and flowing red wine.
“The love for my 45 made me feel ultra alive! Thank you everyone for the love and blessings!!!! The Biggest thank you to my amazing thoughtful wife for setting up this 1 of 1 night @aliciakeys Life begins at the end of your comfort zone!” Swizz expressed in the caption of his Instagram video.
