Step into the roaring 1920s, where champagne flows, secrets simmer, and the drama unfolds in real time—accompanied by a vibrant live orchestra that brings every moment to life.


Orlando Ballet’s artists bring the glamour, drama, and intrigue of Jorden Morris' The Great Gatsby to life in this dazzling production on stage Apr 30 - May 3 at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts


Set against the opulence of the Roaring ’20s, this full-length ballet weaves together passion, ambition, and heartbreak through sweeping choreography, cinematic storytelling, and a richly evocative score. From lavish parties to intimate moments, the company brings F. Scott Fitzgerald’s iconic story vividly to the stage with live accompaniment with Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra.


This heart-pounding story of love, ambition, and betrayal brings to life war hero Jay Gatsby who returns to win back the love of his life, Daisy—but in a world of glittering parties and dark deception, nothing goes as planned. Love triangles twist, loyalties shatter, and the dream begins to crack.


This visually stunning, emotionally charged, and musically explosive night at the theater features dazzling costumes, cinematic staging, and bold storytelling that come together in an unforgettable live experience.


It's Glamour. It's Greed. It's Heartbreak. All set to live music that hits you in the chest. This is The Great Gatsby like you’ve never seen it.
