Reeve Carney and Eva Noblezada to star in The Great Gatsby on Broadway

WhatsOnStage Award winner Eva Noblezada and Reeve Carney are set to join the Broadway cast of The Great Gatsby.

The married couple, who are currently appearing as Sally Bowles and the Emcee in the West End production of Cabaret until 24 January, will take on the roles of Daisy Buchanan and Jay Gatsby in New York. Noblezada originated the role of Buchanan on Broadway and returns from 5 February, with Carney joining her on stage from 30 March.
