PHS Spectacle Theatre Brings “Gatsby” to Stage
GATSBY GLAMOUR: Princeton High School’s production of “The Great Gatsby,” adapted by Gary Peterson, is on stage this weekend at the school’s Performing Arts Center on Moore Street.
A stage adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s iconic novel The Great Gatsby will be performed by the PHS Spectacle Theatre at Princeton High School’s Performing Arts Center this weekend. Shows are Thursday-Saturday, November 16-18 at 7:30 p.m.; and Sunday, November 19 at 2 p.m.
Playwright Gary Peterson adapted the novel, which captures the glamour of the Roaring ’20s. The production is double-cast, with each cast performing two shows. Members of the PHS Studio Band are also taking part. The production contains sensitive subject matter, depicts some violence onstage, and is most appropriate for ages 13 and up.
Tickets are $10-$15 and are available at princetondrama.ludus.com. Those for whom the cost presents a financial hardship are asked to contact patricklenihan@princetonk12.org.
