The Great Gatsby, a vibrant celebration of the 1920s that will transport audiences into a world of jazz, flappers, and extravagant parties, set against the backdrop of F. Scott Fitzgerald's timeless critique of the American dream. Adapted by Simon Levy, the only version officially licensed by the Fitzgerald estate, this is a chance to experience a bold and artistic reimagining of a timeless classic that still challenges our view of success, ambition, and the pursuit of happiness. Through the story, music, dancing, and the Jazz Age prepare to be swept away in the glamour and tragedy of The Great Gatsby.

Open Q&A Session (April 11, following the performance)– Public conversation after the performance with some of the cast and crew.

THE GREAT GATSBY is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection.
