Chasing dreams in a world of glitter: The Tragic Pursuit of Love and Legacy.

Experience a dazzling new adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic, set in the glamorous Jazz Age of 1922. In West Egg, newcomer Nick Carraway meets his enigmatic neighbour, Jay Gatsby, who throws extravagant parties to impress the elite. Gatsby, a self-made millionaire with a mysterious past, yearns to reunite with his lost love, Daisy Buchanan.

As Nick and Gatsby bond, a poignant tale of unfulfilled dreams and the relentless chase for happiness unfolds. Daisy, caught between Gatsby and her unfaithful husband Tom, faces heart-wrenching decisions that lead to a tragic conclusion.

The Great Gatsby remains a timeless masterpiece, portraying a world of grand dreams and inevitable reckoning.

Written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Adapted by Elizabeth Newman and Directed by Sarah Brigham.
