Outdoor Theatre: The Great Gatsby
When? 25 August 2021
Where? Athelhampton House & Gardens - Dorchester
Join Heartbreak Productions in the sublime setting of Athelhampton House for an evening of outdoor theatre, prohibition style. Get your glad rags on, work up your best Charleston, and have your cocktail glass at the ready!
Served up with a twist of iconic Heartbreak style, this outdoor adaptation of F Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby is the perfect way to mark 100 years since prohibition.
Dress for the weather, bring a chair or blanket to sit on, and don’t forget the picnic and prosecco (now that prohibition has been lifted!).
Our guide to getting the best out of your time outdoors
Come prepared! – Bring whatever you need for a cosy evening. Sun shades, sun cream, hats, warm woollies, blankets, waterproofs, face mask, a waterproof lap cover (either a sheet of paper or a bin bag work well), a sleeping bag (it may seem silly, but even the warmest day can turn into the chilliest evening) and insect spray!
Bring your own seat – Low backed chairs, rugs and a cushion are always nice. Combine comfort and style!
Gather a posse – in line with current Covid restrictions! Bring friends and family (family tickets are available). The more the merrier for a fun day or night out!
Arrive Early – Pick a great spot in line with current Covid restrictions and enjoy the atmospheric surroundings
Bring a Torch – It’s very helpful to safely find your way back to the car for evening performances.
Bring a Picnic – grab a blanket and a picnic bag and fill it with all your favourite picnic treats and beverages.
