Produktbeschreibung

A stunning behind-the-scenes look into Alicia Keys's hit Broadway musical, Hell's Kitchen, featuring never-before-seen photographs, exclusive interviews, and insights from Keys herself. Hell's Kitchen debuted on Broadway in 2024-and the show has been electrifying audiences ever since. With plenty of awards attention, the musical has drawn sold-out crowds to the Shubert Theatre for Alicia Keys's coming-of-age tale that shows us where dreams begin. Based on Keys's own experiences of growing up in New York City's Hell's Kitchen neighborhood in the 1990s, the show follows Ali, a headstrong teen searching for her independence, her voice, and her place in the world. Stifled by an overprotective mother, Ali is lost until she meets her mentor: a neighbor who opens her heart to the power of music. Featuring many of Keys's greatest R&B hits, along with songs created especially for the musical, the story is an inspiring mother-daughter tale about finding yourself and your purpose, and the community that lifts you. The Hell's Kitchen book shares an intimate look inside the show's creation, from the first spark of an idea through the musical's thirteen-year journey to Broadway, where it continues to thrill audiences today. The book includes exclusive interviews with key cast and creative team members; first-person notes from Keys on her original songs; stunning stage photography and behind-the-scenes images; insights into costume creation, set design, choreography, and casting; and much more. This beautiful tribute answers every burning question a fan of the musical may have. Ultimately, it's a triumphant celebration of Alicia Keys and New York City.
