Can you repeat the past?

Of course you can, old sport.

Welcome to the Jazz Age. A glittering fever dream of fabulous fortunes, dangerous desires and spectacular excess. Where the champagne never stops flowing, the parties are legendary and everyone has something to hide.

New York. 1922. The city is electric, the stakes are high and the nights are endless.

Every Saturday, the rich, reckless and the ridiculously beautiful descend on the mansion of the mysterious Jay Gatsby. Champagne flows. Fortunes are flaunted. Rumours run wild. Nobody knows quite who their host is, where his money comes from or what he’s really after. But everyone wants an invitation.

Enter Nick Carraway, a newcomer to this intoxicating world of privilege and pleasure. Drawn into Gatsby’s orbit, he discovers that behind the extravagant parties and impossible wealth lies an all-consuming obsession. Her name is Daisy Buchanan.

Gatsby has built an empire to reclaim the woman he lost. And he’ll risk everything to have her again.

From the creative teams behind Frankenstein , 1984 and GRIMM comes a breathtaking new theatrical event that brings F. Scott Fitzgerald’s iconic masterpiece roaring to life.

With spectacular cinematic staging and sumptuous design realised on an intoxicating scale, THE GREAT GATSBY plunges audiences into a dazzling world of wealth, obsession and excess, where fortunes are made, hearts are broken and the American Dream comes spectacularly undone.

This is the Jazz Age as you’ve never experienced it.

Dress up. Follow the green light. Make a night of it.
