‘Thanks in part to Northern Ballet, no wonder we are the dance envy of Europe if not the Western world’ Sunday Express
Following the huge success of Cleopatra and Beauty & the Beast, Northern Ballet returns to Hull New Theatre with their new ballet for 2013 - The Great Gatsby.
Adapted from the classic novel by F Scott Fitzgerald, Northern Ballet’s The Great Gatsby recreates the heady, indulgent days of the 1920s on New York’s Long Island.
Nick Caraway comes to know his infamous neighbour Jay Gatsby – a mysterious millionaire with a secret past and a penchant for lavish parties.
As the sparkling façade of Gatsby’s world begins to slip, Caraway comes to see the loneliness, obsession and tragedy that lie beneath.
As The Great Gatsby is enjoying a huge resurgence in popularity, don’t miss your opportunity to see the compelling story brought to life by this remarkable Company.
