It’s 1922 and you're welcomed to prohibition Wilton’s

Surely there is no better place to experience this new and immersive adaptation produced by the Wilton’s Team and directed by Peter Joucla. Expect late night foxtrots, moonshine in teapots, pearls and flappers, bootleggers and millionaires.

Published in 1925, a year before the catastrophic collapse of the American stock markets, Fitzgerald’s novel graphically portrays a society being destroyed by money and dishonesty, an American Dream of happiness and individualism degenerating into the mere pursuit of wealth.

This play was originally adapted for Tour De Force Theatre by Peter Joucla, Wilton’s will provide a fresh and site specific environment. Filled with live and evocative jazz music from the twenties and recreating the glitz and decadence of the period, you are invited to the party.

Dress in your 20s best, it’s all happening at Wilton’s speakeasy….
