VIDEO: Steve Martin, Mike Daisey read The Great Gatsby

Suzan-Lori Parks, Steve Martin, Frances McDormand, Mike Daisey, and other fans of Elevator Repair Service's GATZ from across the theater community and beyond have delivered the well-known opening of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby.

Nothing can compare to reading a book the traditional way - on the couch with a well-thumbed edition of your favorite book. And if it is one of the classics such as F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, you don't want any music, computer or kindle to come in the way.
