Iconic singer-songwriter Alicia Keys has announced a new stage musical, “Hell’s Kitchen,” based on her experience growing up in the Manhattan neighborhood of the same name.
Written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Kristoffer Diaz, the musical is directed by Michael Greif and choreographed by Camille Brown.
“Hell’s Kitchen” revolves around a teenager, Ali, who is eager to achieve her New York dream.

When Ali falls for a talented young drummer, both mother and daughter must face hard truths about race, defiance, and growing up. Ali feels trapped, until the sound of a neighbor playing piano opens the door to an unexpected friendship and a radically different future.”
