On Your Feet! is a jukebox musical currently playing on Broadway at the Marquis Theatre. Based on the lives and music of 26-time Grammy Award-winning husband-and-wife team Gloria Estefan and Emilio Estefan, the musical has a book written by Alexander Dinelaris and a score built around the Cuban-fusion pop music made famous by Gloria Estefan, such as "Get on Your Feet", "Conga", "1-2-3" and "Rhythm Is Gonna Get You." It also features an original song called "If I Never Got to Tell You," with lyrics by Gloria Estefan and music by her daughter, Emily Estefan.
