The Great Gatsby tells the story of Jay Gatsby, an incredibly wealthy man who is infamous for his lavish and luxurious parties for upper-class society. Despite being famed for his grand get-togethers, Jay Gatsby remains a mystery to many of his guests who realise they don’t know anything about him. All people know about Mr Gatsby are his wild parties filled with plenty of booze, lots of fun dancing and slightly loose morals!

Audience members don’t only get to enjoy the Great Gatsby, but they get to take part in it too! Set in a dimly lit room, audience members are encouraged to dress the part in 1920 fashion. Various scenes take place in the main room at Gatsby’s mansion, and certain groups get taken away to other areas of the house for secret conversations. If you’re looking for a standard, run-of-the-mill West-end production, The Great Gatsby isn’t for you. But if you’re looking for a unique and one-of-a-kind immersive theatrical experience, book your tickets to this incredible production today!

People get very dressed up 1920s style - you don’t have to but it really adds to the fun vibe ! The actors are brilliant at their job,improvising and interacting with the guests, it’s so funny . You get opportunities to explore different rooms in the Gatsby mansion. The set is beautiful and you can take photos at the end in the set . Loved it. My only complaint is that they need more seating read less

The cast are a really talented and gorgeous young bunch of actors and musicians. At key moments they interact with audience members after leading you off to smaller parties in different rooms or a heart to heart with Daisy in her dressing room. All the parts from Gatsby to Nick were played very convincingly up close as well as in the big finale.
The show is played for laughs (until the tragic ending) and it's really funny, with the action feeling close to farce as it moves through a maze-like set of rooms (the sets are excellent and believable). Much funnier than the book or the films.
At the end of a very funny night out there's a poignant moment with some beautiful almost heavenly close harmony singing changing the tone.
It's well worth dressing up in any outfit you have that's close to a 1920s look.
Ticket prices are really good value as well compared to anything else in the West End, our tickets at £37.50 (on a Thursday) included a choice of five Gatsby themed cocktails that would cost £12 -£15 in a Mayfair bar.

We dressed the part and I wish more people had done the same.
We were in Jay’s company for a couple of scenes and absolutely loved it. Such good value for money. Our afternoon just flew by and we didn’t want it to end.
Would thoroughly recommend this.

I have given 5 stars as I saw this at London Bridge and this was by far the best show I have ever seen. However, at Davies St the show was still great fun but I missed the songs from the last show, the cast was good but not as glamorous as the London Bridge cast, the way Daisy and Gatsby sing to each other at Lon bridge was really missing from this show. there was romance, glitz and glamour at london bridge missing from the recent show.

Saying all that the character of Gatsby gave great, believable speeches and was spontaneous. The girl who had an entourage really stood out above the rest. She was witty, glamorous and convincing. The show lacked great music form the last show eg come what may. I also missed that glamorous velvet room and the fun sheet tunnels to get to the roos. The levels could have been used more in the romance. Also the spin the bottle scene in the house was not as good as at the bar with a sing a long. the sing a long was fun.

read moreThis was an immersive experience on a whole different level!

We booked this trip (without consulting Tripadvisor first) as we were offered discounted tickets at the last minute and love the theatre generally. Nothing could have prepared us for what turned out to be a most fantastic evening.

We tried to get into the 'swing' by 'dressing up' (20s style) and this proved to be well worth the effort.

From the start, the audience were involved with the action and the actors. From dancing to responding to questions, everyone joined in and had a fantastic time even putting on American accents for authenticity.

The Actors were brilliant at drawing the audience in and we have a thoroughly fantastic evening. I would highly recommend!

All the actors and actresses seemed to be giving it their all and did a great job. The sets were very well decorated too.

Overall it seems to be one of those events where you get out of it as much as you put in. If you make the effort and get into the swing of things, you'll have a great time, but if you just sit there and expect a typical theatre show to unfold before you you may be left disappointed.

If you're thinking of going I would recommend brushing up on the plot of The Great Gatsby beforehand (especially if you're not familiar with the story), as the action can be a little hard to follow at times. Also, it is essential that you dress up! It seemed that those who dressed smartly/in 1920s attire were more likely to be picked for the side rooms and activities.

Chatting to the characters, dancing, it's all go at Gatsbys Mansion. For us the highlight was becoming part of Jordans entourage- she was so quick witted and funny as we scooched from scene to scene. The show was cleverly put together and mKes a great change from the usual West end sit and face forward offerings - not that they are bad, but this is just so different. Incredible value too - we got tickets at about £25 each - where else could you get front row west end tickets for that price - you'd be at the back with restricted view if you could even find any. read less

The actors were awesome and so much has been put into the entire production. We had someone with us who needed to sit through the show and we were taken such good care of. Can’t praise the show enough, I’d definitely go again! read less

We didn't really know what to expect as we had never been to an immersive show before but we all thoroughly enjoyed it. I do recommend that you watch the film beforehand to really understand what the story is all about. The actors were all amazing and you become totally involved in the whole production. I would recommend this as being one of the best social events I have ever attended. It is just brilliant! read less
