The HCC Theater Department will present The Great Gatsby, a play by Simon Levy, based on the novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald, April 10-13, 2024.
The show, directed by HCC Theater Professor Patricia Sandoval, will run nightly at 7:30 p.m. with a 2 p.m. matinee on Saturday, April 13.
All performances will be in the Leslie Phillips Theater, in the HCC Fine & Performing Arts Building.
Published in 1925, The Great Gatsby is F. Scott Fitzgerald’s most famous novel. Despite initially tepid sales, the book went on to sell more than 25 million copies. Four film adaptations of the book have appeared on the screen, most recently in 2013 directed by Baz Luhrmann, and starring Leonardo DiCaprio. Simon Levy’s stage adaptation was first performed at the Guthrie Theater in 2006 and was approved by the Fitzgerald estate.
Tickets are $5 for HCC students, staff, and faculty, $10 for general admission, and $8 for seniors. Tickets are available one hour before each show at the Leslie Phillips Box Office, or by calling 413.552.2528 to reserve tickets.
