The Geneva English Drama Society perform Gatsby!
25 - 29 February 2020 at the Théâtre Pitoëff in Geneva.

Directed by Christina Vasala Kokkinaki, the show brings glamour, passion, and the decadent excess of the Jazz Age to life in this adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel.

Narrated by Nick Carraway, an aspiring banker who is dazzled by the glamorous upper-class crowd of Long Island in the 1920s, this is the tale of the fabulously wealthy Jay Gatsby, who throws lavish parties in the hope of attracting the attention of his one love: the elusive Daisy, married to the brutish Tom Buchanan.

Daire O'Doherty, Genna Ingold and Dmitry Borisov, who play Gatsby, Daisy and Nick respectively, join Katt Cullen in the WRS studios on the Mid Morning Mix.
