St Mary’s Church, Hartley Wintney - The Great Gatsby

Step into the roaring 1920s, where the champagne flows, the jazz trumpet blows, and the American Dream gleams with irresistible allure. This electrifying stage adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s timeless novel brings Jay Gatsby’s glittering world to life — a place of opulence, obsession, and heartbreak.

As Nick Carraway is drawn into the orbit of his mysterious neighbor, the secrets behind Gatsby’s lavish parties begin to unravel, revealing a story of love lost and illusion pursued.

Featuring live music and a dynamic ensemble, This Is My Theatre’s adaptation invites audiences to experience one of literature’s best-loved stories like never before — glamorous, grandiose and undeniably… Great.
