Description
Other Info

When 17-year-old Nick transfers to a new school, he finds himself drawn into the orbit of the mysterious, fabulously wealthy Jay. Jay throws extravagant parties at the local Yacht Club with the goal of attracting the attention of Nick's cousin Daisy. Only one problem: Daisy has a boyfriend, football star Tom. As Jay launches a campaign to be elected Homecoming King and win Daisy's heart, Nick finds himself more and more fascinated by Jay's ability to invent his own reality, and by his paradoxical desire to make everyone a star. This play, adapted from F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, asks audiences to choose: do we want equality, or do we want to be the best?
