A further extension has been announced for the run of London's longest running immersive theatrical production THE GREAT GATSBY. Created and directed by Alexander Wright, THE GREAT GATSBY is now playing at Gatsby's Mansion at Immersive LDN in Mayfair until 30 October 2022.

Immersive Everywhere will bring back London's longest running immersive theatrical production this autumn. THE GREAT GATSBY, created and directed by Alexander Wright, reopens in the West End, playing at Gatsby's Mansion at Immersive LDN in Mayfair from 16 September, with a press night on Friday 24 September (marking F Scott's Fitzgerald's 125th birthday).

The Guild of Misrule's critically acclaimed THE GREAT GATSBY, created and directed by Alexander Wright, is currently wowing audiences in its new West End venue IMMERSIVE | LDN.

Alexander Wright has just moved his immersive version of The Great Gatsby into the newly refurbished Immersive LDN in Mayfair. We got a chance to ask him what makes a great immersive show, how to take care of the wellbeing of the audience, and the fascination the surrounds the jazz age.

All new production photos have been released for The Great Gatsby.

The modern world has always seen a fascination surrounding F. Scott Fitzgerald's 1925 novel The Great Gatsby and the licentious partying, wealth, obsessive passion, and excess he painted have seeped into the 21st Century cultural landscape as a beacon of intellectual decadence. This hedonistic view of the Jazz Age and racket - no matter how historically inaccurate at times - lends itself well to an immersive experience, and pushed Alexander Wright's production based on the original material to achieve the title of longest running immersive theatre show. After debuting in London at The Vaults in 2017, it moved around a bit before settling into a bespoke venue in Mayfair last month.

The Guild of Misrule's THE GREAT GATSBY, created and directed by Alexander Wright, is currently wowing audiences in its brand-new West End venue IMMERSIVE | LDN, continuing its record as the UK's longest running immersive production.

The Guild of Misrule's THE GREAT GATSBY, created and directed by Alexander Wright, will transfer to its brand-new West End venue IMMERSIVE | LDN this month, with preview performances from Friday 18 October and press night on Thursday 7 November. 'The Guild Of Misrule's The Great Gatsby is a co-production with Immersive Everywhere, Gavin Kalin Productions, and Glynis Henderson Productions in association with Theatr Clwyd'.
