?Set to catchy melodies that hark back to the golden age of Broadway, the musical adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's comic novella is told through a framing device of a young couple seeking to immigrate to the United States today. The couple puzzles over Fitzgerald's deliberate satire involving impossibly wealthy Americans and Fitzgerald's cavalier treatment of race issues. As the story moves back and forth from present day to the 1920s, the story takes on added comic satire and an edgy, engrossing perspective.
