    Literature to Life: The Great Gatsby

    Girls Write Now Office 247 W 37th Street #1000, New York, NY, United States

    Literature to Life in partnership with Girls Write Now presents The Great Gatsby.

    Considered to be one of the greatest American novels, this story explores the glittering promises and devastating illusions of the American Dream. The LTL actor embodies multiple characters, conveying the lengths each will go to attain their desires. Through this portrayal, audiences witness both the allure and emptiness of Gatsby’s dream. The adaptation focuses on the tensions between, and treatments of, social class, gender, race, and the true cost of the American Dream.
