The Great Gatsby

Return to the splendor and frivolity of the Roaring Twenties with F. Scott Fitzgerald’s passionate, thought-provoking, and complex The Great Gatsby. The story is told through the eyes of World War One veteran Nick Caraway. He experiences the rise and fall of the Jazz Age as he is unwillingly immersed in the excess, intrigue, and infidelity of the 1920’s upper class. The story of romance and desire is a cautionary tale of unbridled passion and obsession, and how the American Dream can go desperately awry.

Webre’s contemporary ballet adaptation of Fitzgerald’s classic fuses live music, narration, singing, contemporary and classical dance, tap and more to bring to life the iconic story of obsession, wealth and excess.
