In Brief

Performance length: , with 1 intermission.

The combination of Francis Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel and Dwight Rhoden's choreography is a true find for ballet art lovers. The strongest international team worked on the creation of the ballet, so every detail here is pure delight.

The show's story began in 2014 on the stage of the Ukraine Palace in Kyiv. Since then, "The Great Gatsby Ballet" has been presented in Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Geneva, Paris, Madrid, Tel Aviv, and other cities, becoming the most successful ballet in Ukraine's history. The production has already been highly praised by more than 100,000 viewers worldwide. All this is the result of the colossal work of the team, which brought together the brightest talents from different parts of the world.

There are many well-known and recognizable names among the creators of "The Great Gatsby Ballet". Dwight Rhoden is one of the most sought-after choreographers of our time according to the New York Times, and the founder of the famous Complexions Contemporary Ballet. Producers Yurii Shepeta and Konstantin Meladze created a wonderful musical accompaniment. The Great Gatsby Ballet features soloists from the world's best opera houses.

The dancers take the stage dressed in costumes from the famous Ukrainian brand FROLOV, which created, among other things, Beyonce's dress for her solo concert. Made from translucent fabrics, embellished with stones, and hand-embroidered, the costumes perfectly highlight the traits of the characters in The Great Gatsby Ballet and the transformation of their characters.

The show captures the atmosphere of 1920s America as described in Fitzgerald's novel: the art deco period and sophisticated parties with sparkling rivers. Therefore, if you have always wanted to take a peek into the Roaring Twenties, The Great Gatsby Ballet is perfect for that.
