The Great Gatsby - Theatrical Production

The Great Gatsby - Theatrical Production at Murat Theatre at Old National Centre

Gatsby's green light has always been about wanting something just out of reach. On December 9 at 7:00 PM, you can watch that longing come to life at the Murat Theatre at Old National Centre in Indianapolis, where The Great Gatsby arrives as a touring stage musical. It's a chance to see a story you may know by heart told in a completely different way.

The pull here is the adaptation itself. Based on F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, the musical steps into the world of Gatsby, Daisy and the 1920s, with a book by Kait Kerrigan, music by Jason Howland and lyrics by Nathan Tysen. If you've ever finished that book and wished you could hear what the characters felt, this is your invitation. Music gives yearning, glamour and regret a voice, and a live stage puts those emotions in the room with you. It's also the Broadway-associated production, distinct from Gatsby: An American Myth, so you know exactly which version you're choosing.

Make it a night out worth planning. Broadway in Indianapolis lists the run at the Murat Theatre from December 8–13, 2026, and the presenter notes an approximate running time of two hours and thirty minutes with one intermission. That's a full evening with a built-in pause to trade first impressions with whoever sits beside you. Then talk about it all the way home. Reserve your seats for The Great Gatsby in Indianapolis and step into Gatsby's glittering, doomed dream.
