The Community Players of Salisbury will present the play The Great Gatsby, a stage adaptation written and directed by Matt Bogdan. The play focuses on the plot and characters of the classic novel, including Jay Gatsby, Daisy Buchanan, and Nick Carraway. Intertwined in the two-act play are the life and times of The Great Gatsby author, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and his wife Zelda. Music from the 1920s enhance the production.
