by Rachel Weinberg - Apr 23, 2026

While THE GREAT GATSBY has glimpses of effective songs and character development, the musical doesn’t ultimately live up to the glitz, glamor, and legacy of its source material.

by Jarrod Michael - Apr 16, 2026

A cornerstone of American literature by F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, has been brought to life in a way never seen before.

by Alan Portner - Mar 18, 2026

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.
