Eva Noblezada has set her final performance as Daisy Buchanan in Broadway's The Great Gatsby for January 30, 2025 at the Broadway Theatre.

Noblezada is the musical's latest star to announce a departure. Jeremy Jordan, currently starring in the title role, will give his final bow January 19, 2025, and Eric Anderson, playing Wolfsheim, is set to depart January 5.

Jordan and Noblezada will mark the end of their runs in the musical with a special event celebrating the F. Scott Fitzgerald novel's centennial January 16, 2025. The gala evening will begin with a performance of The Great Gatsby at The Broadway Theatre and then move to The New York Public Library, where Jordan and Noblezada will pass the torch to the production's new star, Ryan McCartan, due to succeed Jordan and begin performances in the title role starting January 21. Proceeds from this event will benefit The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts.

Anderson will be succeeded by three-time Tony nominee Terrence Mann, who will play the role for a limited engagement January 8-April 20, 2025. No replacement has been announced for Noblezada.

Based on the classic novel, The Great Gatsby features music and lyrics by Nathan Tysen (Paradise Square) and Jason Howland (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical) and a book by Jonathan Larson Grant winner Kait Kerrigan (The Mad Ones). Marc Bruni (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical) directs with choreography by Dominique Kelley (Mariah’s Magical Christmas Special).

Set in the Roaring '20s, the musical follows eccentric millionaire Jay Gatsby, who will stop at nothing in his tragic pursuit of Daisy Buchanan, a wealthy young woman whom he loved in his youth.

Along with Jordan, Noblezada, and Anderson, the current Broadway cast includes Noah J. Ricketts (Frozen) as Nick Carraway, Sara Chase (The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) as Myrtle, Samantha Pauly (Six) as Jordan Baker, John Zdrojeski (Good Night Oscar) as Tom Buchanan, and Charlie Pollock (Urinetown) as George Wilson.
