Midwest native Nick Carraway arrives in New York in search of the American dream and is thrown into the deep end of the Roaring Twenties. Caught up in the lavish and improbable world of a man named Gatsby, Nick’s cousin Daisy, and her philandering husband, Tom, Nick bears witness to their illusions, deceits and the wreckage they leave in their wake - spinning a tale of impossible love, dreams, and tragedy. Based on the classic book by F. Scott Fitzgerald, THE GREAT GATSBY is a fable of America, the Jazz Age, enchantment and illusions, and a world where love and dreams are pursued and betrayed. Brought to life through bold and imaginative staging, experience a Great American Novel either for the first time, or all over again like you’ve never experienced it before.
