On Your Feet!, the previously announced new musical based on the life story of Gloria Estefan and her husband, producer Emilio Estefan, has announced that it will begin performances at Broadway's Marquis Theatre on October 5, 2015. Opening night is set for November 5. Jerry Mitchell will direct, with choreography by Sergio Trujillo.

Featuring a book by Alexander Dinelaris (The Bodyguard), On Your Feet! features Estefan's chart-topping hits "Rhythm Is Gonna Get You," "1-2-3," and "Conga," along with new music penned by the Estefans.

Two open casting calls will also be held in the coming months.
