New York, 1922. At the height of the jazz age and in the midst of Prohibition, midwestern veteran Nick Carraway moves to New York City and is quickly pulled into the world of the rich and powerful by way of his cousin Daisy and his mysterious millionaire neighbor, Jay Gatsby. In this hour-long one-person adaptation of The Great Gatsby, Literature to Life (The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao) breathes new insight into one of America’s greatest novels about privilege, identity, and the price of the American Dream.
