The classic cautionary tale of the American Dream comes to life on stage with the beautiful people, decadent lifestyles and everything readers have come to know and love from the book.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Great Gatsby is part of our Campus Connection series and it\u2019s a story that most students are familiar with,\u201d said Kate Meacham, Ford Center marketing director. \u201cStudents now have the chance to see the story brought to life. This production embodies the educational and enriching experience that we strive to provide.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Montana Repertory Theatre was established as a touring company in 1968 and is known for performing\u00a0classic American stories such as “Death of a Salesman,” “To Kill a Mockingbird” and “The Miracle Worker.” This adaption is penned by Simon Levy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
