Hudson calling for The Great Gatsby

The UK’s longest-running immersive experience, The Great Gatsby, is to transfer to New York for its seventh birthday in Spring 2023, it has been announced. The production, which is currently running at Gatsby’s Mansion in central London, will open at New York’s newest theatre venue, the Park Central Hotel, on 8 February.

To celebrate the announcement and the birthday of the show, producers Immersive Everywhere are giving party-goers the opportunity to win a trip to the New York experience, simply by buying a ticket to see The Great Gatsby in London in November or December 2022 or January 2023. The prize includes two tickets to see The Great Gatsby in New York, as well as economy flights and a two-night stay in the Park Central hotel.

The Great Gatsby debuted in London in 2017 as part of VAULT Festival, before transferring to a home in Borough soon after. The show took up residence in West End in 2019 and, despite a temporary closure for the pandemic, has remained at Gatsby’s Mansion ever since.

New production imagery for the production has also been released – with one shot even featuring one of the Overstudies! We visited the show in November 2022, coinciding with the shoot of the new photographs. You can hear all about our views of the production by listening in to Jordan Baker’s Entourage, the seventh episode of our first season of the Overstudies podcast.

The Great Gatsby is playing at Gatsby’s Mansion until 7 January 2023. Tickets for all performances are on sale now.

There's a reason Charley goes by the slogan 'Trains, Theatre, Tea. (& everything in between)'. A life-long theatre aficionado, Charley has had some connection with the stage since the earliest of ages, starting out treading the boards before focussing on technical and direction roles in later education. Returning to London in 2015 has afforded her the opportunity to regularly see shows on and off the West End, rekindling a passion for musical theatre and spreading to going on adventures to Dubai and New York to see some of her favourite shows. When she's not enthusing about Heathers or Six, Charley looks after the technical aspects of Overstudies, whilst also using her extensive knowledge and experience in community radio to oversee and develop our own radio show. Her favourite show will always be Les Miserables, but she also has a soft spot for Heathers, Six, Mamma Mia! and The Lion King, to name but a few.
