Suggested Backdrops
Gatsby's world is one of glamour and luxury--and there's no drop that exemplifies both quite like LUXURY MANSION EXTERIOR. With its stately house and large pool, it's just right for Gatsby's mansion. For Tom and Daisy's home VICTORIAN PARLOR SUMMER - B is a tasteful and classic choice. BROOKLYN LOFT is a slightly seedy option for the apartment Tom keeps for his and Myrtle's affair. STYLIZED MANHATTAN is a dramatic choice for the scenes where the characters drive to and from New York. VICTORIAN PALACE BALLROOM, with its fine art and elegance, is perfect for the Plaza Hotel. And, of course, it wouldn't be the roaring 20s without a SPEAKEASY! Finally, for a main drape or for a single backdrop that captures the decade at a glance, turn to richly-colored ART DECO ABSTRACT. No matter which drops you choose, with TheatreWorld's backdrops, your production of The Great Gatsby will look like a million bucks!
