Hong Kong Ballet presents ‘The Great Gatsby’

Get ready for the glitz and glam of the Roaring Twenties in New York as Hong Kong Ballet’s critically acclaimed melodrama ‘The Great Gatsby’ returns for eight performances at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre from October 27 to 29 and November 4 to 5.

A tale of the enigmatic, self-made millionaire Jay Gatsby, who is in search for his long-lost love, the show reflects the disintegration of social values and the pursuit of luxury and pleasure. The production brings F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel to life with stunning visuals, stylish dancing, shocking scandals, and live jazz music performed by Billy Novick’s Blue Syncopators and award-winning blues singer E. Faye Butler. It also features local veteran dancer Wong Tan-ki’s tap dancing and Academy Award-winning designer Tim Yip’s original art deco sets and costumes.
