Hell's Kitchen performed Kaleidoscope on the Friday, March 22nd episode of The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. This performance marked the musical's debut on television.
Alicia Keys and Marea Joy Moon also sat down with Jimmy Fallon to discuss bringing the show to Broadway.

It takes a very special person to be a killer dancer, killer singer, killer vocalist, killer actor. You have to be able to, and she's so phenomenal, and you have that,'' to have that New York energy. ”
Moon says of the score, “It's like these classics and anthems, but I've never heard it this way before. It's a real earworm.”
