Set to catchy melodies reminiscent of Broadway’s golden age, this musical adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's comic novella is framed by the story of a young couple seeking to immigrate to the United States today. As they delve into Fitzgerald's satire of the extravagantly wealthy and his casual treatment of race issues, the narrative shifts between the present and the 1920s. This interplay adds layers of satire and a fresh, engaging perspective to the original tale.
