The Great Gatsby Tickets

The Great Gatsby is an original interpretation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel. It has a spectacular set evoking that amazing art deco era. Jamie Mescato, the lead actor, has a wonderful singing voice and is well supported by Frances McCann and excellent ensemble of dancers and singers. . l

Well known story, the costumes, set and dancing was excellent. The music was a bit repetitive I felt , was expecting more of a jazzy sound. An enjoyable show however and glad I got to experience it.

I loved it because it had fabulous music, dancing and costumes. Most importantly it didn’t deviate from the book.

Beautiful to look at but an inconsistent score. At points it felt like an imitation of Wicked or one of those Disney cartoons that are popular at the moment. Some songs are formulaic as if written by AI although the performers where great. I didn’t care for the oral gymnastics or the enormous volume or the sustain on some of the notes - it’s not a contest it’s an entertainment. However, I had cheap seats and this was a really great value for money seat and a great big show experience in a tremendous theatre.

Sumptuous sets, great singing, but I was hoping for more big chorus numbers. I didn't leave the theatre "buzzing".

There is just too must Disney-style music and not enough jazz, or speakeasy scenes. Plot is fine, but final 10 minutes could be extended, slowed down and the drama built more slowly.

Came across this show by chance and booked two tickets 30 minutes before for show time. I quite enjoyed the show, and had I had more time i would have probably worn 20s style clothing as per the advice given by the theatre. The show is interesting as you get to follow the actors into other rooms, however you need to position yourself accordingly as only a few at a time are allowed to move to another room, thus if you are unlucky enough to miss any of the acts in the adjacent rooms, the show will likely feel monotonous and stale.

Definitely a show for adults. Super acting. The ways that the audience is involved are really clever and don’t leave anybody feeling uncomfortable or awkward - you can participate as much or little as you like. Definitely fun to dress up. My husband and I really enjoyed the party!

I'd read some very contrasting reviews. We followed the advice of watching the film/re-reading the plot beforehand, which really helped (and were prepared for the fact that the venue really does get quite warm). We really enjoyed it. But the key is probably to throw yourself into it. We dressed up 1920s style, joined in the dancing/singing, even had a go at US accents. Its a mash up of theatre, improv, cabaret etc. Its true that there are parts with shouting. parts where you can't here every word, and because action is split between various rooms inevitably there's elements of plot you'll miss. But just accept that and don't expect it to be like a regular theatre outing. I went with three 18-25 year olds all of whom thoroughly enjoyed it. But the trick is to not be a wallflower. If you're the sort who enjoys the Edinburgh Fringe, you'll enjoy this.

Overall, it was a great experience and we got a brilliant deal on the ticket price!! 1. Set - Good 2. Cast - Great 3. Immersive experience - Great 4. Lighting - Good 5. Music - Poor Firstly, I would definitely recommend this show to everyone! It thoroughly deserves to be fully supported. I do feel there are areas for improvement however and would love to see the following happen: A slightly bigger cast with more and improved choreography when not interacting with audience and more solo and chorus singing. A live jazz band in the main reception room is a must for me and would bring the entire show to life! I say definitely dress for the occasion and go all out, it’s a fantastic few hours of total escapism and you will be thoroughly entertained. This was a first for all 4 of us (3 are avid theatre goers) and we were not disappointed!

We very much enjoyed the show, not expecting it was so interactive and that we should have dressed up for the occasion. It is not really clearly stated that when you book you will be part of the set and preferably should dress up. It would be good to have that clearly stated on the booking confirmation. It is a good experience for any age group, but I would think it is more difficult to follow when you are not a native speaker. At the start it lacks a bit in story line, later on this is getting better. All in all, a very nice, well performed theatre experience with a twist.

The idea of a more interactive show is interesting and unusual. In my opinion, the choice of the novel was unfortunate. The Great Gatsby is a rather moving story but the whole idea got lost in this show. Too much fuss, too much motion and not much of a story. Not for me.

Booked the show last minute as a friend was in town. We did not know what to expect but overall was a great experience. This is a style of play that we have never seen before. It's really not like sitting and watching, you are part of it. Somehow, I would have liked it to be even more immersive! Perfect to discover a new theatre style and/or make a surprise to a friend without saying what it is about. Even if not everyone does it, it worth dressing up 20's style to reinforce the effect of the play. Recommend to go!

This is a fun combination of a play and a party. The friendly actors do a great job of staying in character from the doorstep and the guest list to the end of the evening. Set in a large central warehouse room, with smaller rooms off to the sides, the audience is free to mill around, as there are no assigned seats. With a selection of strong cocktails at the bar and most of the audience in passable period party dress, my guest and I had a great time being ushered from room to room to witness scenes. The actors bring audience members into the action in a minor way, but it’s easy to blend in if you have stage fright. I would suggest you spend a few minutes practicing the Charleston before you go, if you really want to make the most of the evening.

Be part of the action, taking place in a set of rooms representing Gatsby's house where big parties take place. Order your drink from the bar, dance with the actors, go around the rooms to see how things evolve in front of your eyes. Participate in the dialogs and actions - not to be scared, usually only need to answer with a yes or not, pretending you are one of Gatsby's invitees to the party. Great night out, would recommend it!

Beyond thrilled with our choice. We booked impromptu on London Box office not quite knowing what the ‘immersive theatre’ would entail. We loved the story line and all the little story offshoots. Acting was fantastic and the actors stuck around to chat to our 16 year old fan girl daughters. Brilliant and highly recommended.

Honestly didn't read the small print about this show. Booked it online last minute and thought my mother and I were going to be seated to watch the play. We were surprised to be standing and walking around, almost participants in Gastby's party. It was a little disconcerting at first but we soon got into it. Characters of Tom and Nick were brilliant and the whole experience was very engaging. Only regret was that we had a lot of shopping bags from our day around London and they were difficult to carry from set to set. Be prepared and embrace this unusual but well executed show.
