Materials

Materials for Gatsby: The Musical─apart from perusal copies of the script and score which are posted on this website─ may be ordered by mail or by phone though no production materials will be shipped prior to receiving a signed contract and either a money order or check for the Music Rental Fee and the Security Deposit. 

The Music Package consists of:

The show can be played by as few as 11 musicians (with some doubling) and has been arranged to provide a full and authentic period sound without the cost of a larger orchestra. MIDI files are also available for purchase to make rehearsal easier.  They will work with Garage Band, Logic Pro, or any other software or hardware-based MIDI work-station. Additional music or choral books are available for an additional charge.

The arrangements are tailored towards intermediate players in the Level IV-V range.  They were created by Vince Corozine, whose work includes arrangements for the Annual Thanksgiving Parade in Philadelphia, ABC-Disney, The USMA Band West Point Jazz Knights, the theme for Peter Jennings “World News Tonight” (ABC News), Action Park, Sesame Place, The Garden State Arts Center, and Resorts International in Atlantic City, NJ.

The Script Package consists of: 

12 full scripts:

• 1 for each of the 7 principal characters (7)
• 1 each for the director, musical director and choreographer (3)
• 2 for the technical crew (2)

12 scene excerpts for characters with minimal lines or only one scene (12)
(These contain the dialogue for all of the minor characters and may be shared or divided as you see fit.)

Scripts are provided at no additional charge and need not be returned to Stage Write Productions.

As for the score and music books, all music materials should be packed securely in their original boxes within ten days after the final performance and returned to

provided, of course, that the boxes have not been damaged in transit.
