Everything You Need to Know About Atlanta Ballet and The Great Gatsby

Atlanta Ballet is the oldest professional ballet company in the United States, with a history stretching back to 1929. Based in Atlanta and beloved across Georgia, the company performs at the highest level of professional dance, consistently drawing national critical acclaim and loyal local audiences season after season. Atlanta Ballet has built its reputation on staging both beloved classics and boundary-pushing original works — and The Great Gatsby sits squarely in that tradition of ambitious, visually stunning storytelling.

F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, first published in 1925, is one of the defining works of American literature. Set against the glittering backdrop of 1920s New York, the story follows the mysterious Jay Gatsby and his obsessive pursuit of Daisy Buchanan, weaving themes of wealth, illusion, and the American Dream into a narrative that remains as urgent today as it was a century ago. Translated to the ballet stage, those themes gain new dimension — emotion expressed through movement, desire rendered in choreography, and the tragedy of Gatsby's downfall felt viscerally in every leap and line.

Atlanta Ballet's productions are known for their exceptional production values, from costume and set design to live musical accompaniment, and The Great Gatsby delivers on every front. For longtime Atlanta Ballet fans and first-time ballet audiences alike, this is the performance that defines the 2027 season.
