About this Event
The Great Gatsby, adapted for the stage by Stephen Sharkey from F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel, transports audiences to the dazzling world of 1920s America, where glamour, wealth and ambition conceal heartbreak, longing and disillusionment.
Narrated by the observant Nick Carraway, the story follows the mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby, whose lavish parties captivate New York society. Beneath the glittering surface, however, lies Gatsby's enduring love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan and his desperate dream of recreating the past. As secrets emerge and tensions rise, the characters are forced to confront the true cost of pursuing wealth, status and impossible dreams.
Recommended for ages 10 and up.
