The Great Gatsby

Presented by Village Home

Adapted by VH Alum, Maeve Z O’Connor, based on the novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald

This incredible adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel is true to the original story while bringing forward themes of gender and socio-economic equity.  The story is told through the eyes of Nick who rents a cottage on the grounds of Jay Gatsby, a rich socialite recently returned to the community.  Jay’s attempts to woo former lover Daisy away from her husband prove fruitless.  While the book was designed to be a social commentary of the time, its themes are forever a fabric of humanity.  Audiences will have much to discuss after the surprise ending. Please note, there is a murder-suicide depicted on stage, so this is appropriate for an audience 12+.

Adults: $12

Youth:$8 (recommended for audiences12+)
