F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby is universally viewed as one of the greatest novels ever written. The power of the narrative; the accurate, haunting, and heartfelt snapshot of the Roaring Twenties; and the sheer beauty of the prose are all present in Simon Levy’s masterful adaptation of the Fitzgerald classic for the stage. Although there are several movie versions of varying artistic merit, the stage offers a new, exciting, and fertile ground for this epic story.
On the stage we can feel firsthand the energy of Jay Gatsby, the sensual allure of Daisy Buchanan, and the ‘Everyman’ complexity of Nick Carraway. The Ritz is pleased to present this important national tour of the acclaimed Montana Repertory Theatre Company’s production of The Great Gatsby, produced and directed with all the care and attention such an outstanding work of art deserves. What an honor to be a part of bringing the beauty and poetry of Fitzgerald’s masterpiece – living and breathing on stage – to a new generation of theatre goers.
