Provocative and ambitious, Gatz is a six-hour theatrical tour-de-force of the entire text of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, performed verbatim and unabridged. The play begins in a modern but derelict office with a stressed, white-collar employee picking up the book and reading it aloud; soon, parallels between his colleagues and characters in the book begin to emerge. Directed by John Collins, Gatz brings together the literary virtuosity of an American masterpiece and the mischievous creativity of one of New York's most celebrated ensembles.
