A Concert Reading to Benefit Prospect Theater Company

Brilliantly talented, young F. Scott Fitzgerald is swept into the hierarchy of Ivy League society and the antics of the Princeton Triangle Club, in pursuit of the beautiful and elusive debutante Ginevra King. Their romance inspired one of the greatest novels of the 20th century…

Don’t miss this encore, concert presentation of Prospect’s sold-out production, which was nominated for two Drama Desk Awards (Best Music, Best Orchestrations). Based on the life of F. Scott Fitzgerald and his debut novel This Side of Paradise, The Pursuit of Persephone is a new musical by Prospect’s resident composer Pete Mills and artistic director Cara Reichel.
