by Jeffrey Kare - May 6, 2026

Based on F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic 1925 novel of the same name. The Great Gatsby is set on Long Island, near New York City during the Jazz Age.

by Rachel Weinberg - Apr 23, 2026

by Alan Portner - Mar 18, 2026

Review: THE GREAT GATSBY at Broadway at The Hobby Center
by Brett Cullum - Mar 4, 2026

The book is full of mysteries, unspoken judgements, and a vicious sense of classism mixed with ruthless self-preservation, and there is not a lot of this present in this interpretation, brought to life by Kait Kerrigan's book, Jason Howland's music, and Fitzgerald-inspired lyrics by Nathan Tysen.
