What a stunning theatre performance presented by the White Horse Theatre! The character of Jay Gatsby as well as his fellow actors captivated the audience with one of the greatest love stories. Set during the roaring 20s in America and narrated by Nick Carraway, the students got to know the mysterious Jay Gatsby throwing magnificent parties, but also holding a dark secret about his past.

After the play the pupils had the opportunity to interview the actors about their relation to the characters and how they felt about playing them. In any case, they did an exceptionally good job in adapting a complex, multi-layered novel for the stage.
