Although it was a commercial disappointment during the author’s lifetime, this is a story that has since been well-loved and adapted for the stage numerous times. The Great Gatsby musical is a stunning reimagination of F. Scott Fitzgerald's seminal novel, crafted to capture the era's decadence and underlying social tensions. With 22 original songs that explore the emotional themes behind the blinding display of wealth and status. Watch the elusive American Dream unfold with a painful love story with your tickets to The Great Gatsby at London Coliseum!
F. Scott Fitzgerald published The Great Gatsby in 1925, inspired by his romance with a wealthy socialite and the roaring galas he was privy to during their relationship. The plot similarly follows the narrator Nick Carraway’s account of his acquaintance with his wealthy and extravagant neighbor, Jay Gatsby. Gatsby seems intent on finding a way to reunite with Daisy, his former flame - hosting legendary parties that pulse with jazz and champagne, yet Gatsby himself remains an enigma. But while he hides behind the glow of opulence, the story peels back the tragic reality of his unfulfilled desire.

Absolutely wo detail show. Ticket procedure straightforward.
Great time out with friends and family. Lively and fun performance by the cast. Great voices and dance and fantastic scen changes!
Tickets were hassle free and the show amazing. It was all very smooth. The issue was it wasn't until after I purchased the tickets I realised they were none exchangeable. I've previously needed to swap dates fairly last minute with no hassle with a different provider so I found this a bit of a downside
I was late for a few minutes but can't go to my actual seat and the staffs let people sit very far in the hindmost location . So, I watched nothing till the half time break. The sound quality is so loud compared to other musical venues.
The performers were great! We loved everything!
