About The Great Gatsby

This dazzling premiere reimagines F. Scott Fitzgerald’s timeless classic with full theatrical spectacle. Directed and choreographed by Joel Burke, with narration by James Millar, Gatsby’s story comes to life like never before.

The score blends Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, James P. Johnson’s The Charleston, and bold new works by Dominic Cabusi and Oscar award-winning Jason Fernandez.

On stage, world-class dancers deliver a fusion of ballet, tap, and jazz. Expect breathtaking choreography, dazzling costumes, towering sets, and all the glitz and glamour of one of the greatest stories ever told.

The Great Gatsby promises to be the theatrical event of the year.
