Why see The Great Gatsby?

The Great Gatsby In The West End

Old sport, it's the roaring 20s - and everything is changing. Following The Great Gatsby's glitzy Tony-award-winning run on Broadway (starring Jeremy Jordan and Eva Noblezada), Jay Gatsby invites you to the greatest party the West End has ever seen, it's no secret that this self-made millionaire wines and dines with the rich and restless of West Egg, and soon you will too as this magnetic new resident comes to the London Coliseum this year!

About The Great Gatsby 

When humble narrator Nick Carraway moves to Long Island, he is quickly swept up in Jay Gatsby's overly extravagant lifestyle. No one knows how this mysterious millionaire came to such a fortune, but one thing is obvious, he just can't stay away from Daisy Buchanan, a married charming socialite who lives across the water. Jay believes that with enough money and the right mansion, he may just be able to have his happily ever after.

A literary masterpiece and one of the Great American Novels, The Great Gatsby was adapted into a 2013 major motion picture by Baz Luhrmann starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, and Carey Mulligan. The film has grossed over $353.6 million worldwide. The new West End version features features a book by Kait Kerrigan (The Mad Ones), an original score by Tony Award nominees Jason Howland and Nathan Tysen (Paradise Square), and direction by Marc Bruni (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical).

The production is choreographed by Dominique Kelley, with Tony Award-winning costume design by Linda Cho and Outer Critics Circle Award-winning scenic and projection design by Paul Tate de Poo III.
