First Date is a musical with a book by Austin Winsberg and music and lyrics by Alan Zachary and Michael Weiner. Based around the concept of a blind date, the musical made its world premiere during 2012 at Seattle's ACT Theatre in a 5th Avenue Theatre co-production and made its Broadway debut August 8, 2013, at the Longacre Theatre.

The original production of the musical ran at Seattle's ACT Theatre, from March 10 until May 20, 2012.

First Date began previews on July 9, 2013, at the Longacre Theatre, New York City, and its official opening night was August 8, 2013. The show evolved from a book by Austin Winsberg, with music and lyrics by Alan Zachary and Michael Weiner, inspired largely by personal experiences. It is directed by Bill Berry, with musical staging by Josh Rhodes, orchestrations by August Eriksmoen, scenic design by David Gallo, lighting design by Mike Baldassari and sound design by Kai Harada. In May 2013, Zachary Levi and Krysta Rodriguez were announced as the show's leads playing roles of Aaron and Casey. The role of Aaron was played by Eric Ankrim for the July 16–21 preview dates due to a Comic-Con commitment for Levi. Ankrim previously played the part in Seattle.

The Broadway production closed after a run of five months, on January 5, 2014, after 34 previews and 174 regular performances. It played to an average 71.54% capacity. Levi gave a speech on closing night.

First Date debuted as the first non-English company in Japan in November 2014.

The show, titled Cita a Ciegas, opened in Buenos Aires on May 10, 2016, in the Teatro Maipo on the Avenida Corrientes. The original run of 8 performances was extended to 6 months, with 43 performances in all.

Cita a Ciegas received ten nominations for three different awards in 2016.

After a six-month break, the company returned with a second season of the show, which opened on May 4, 2017, still in the Maipo Kabaret.
