The Great Gatsby 1926

Cambridge University Press has recently released the rediscovered script for the 1926 Broadway production of The Great Gatsby. Long before the current musical adaptation, F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel came to the stage for the first time in 1926, playing at the Ambassador Theatre, which currently houses Chicago. The production, directed by filmmaker George Cukor (My Fair Lady) was successful, playing for 112 performances in New York before a national tour and later, a film.
