About the show

Fitzgerald’s classic is reimagined for the Edinburgh Fringe in a bold, multi-perspective adaptation that shatters the myth of the American Dream. Told through shifting viewpoints, the story unfolds in dynamic vignettes seamlessly stitched together. An immersive party atmosphere give ways to moments of raw intimacy, revealing the contradictions, illusions and social barriers that drive – and destroy – its characters. As desire, wealth and identity collide, the pace builds relentlessly toward the devastating deaths of three central figures, exposing the true cost of dreaming too big.
