The Gatsby Gamble
Brisbane Powerhouse becomes a 1920s-era speakeasy for two nights of games, puzzles and mysteries.
Overview
Bust out your fedoras and flapper dresses, Brisbanites, and prepare to step back in time. For two nights only as part of this year's Wonderland Festival, Brisbane Powerhouse will become a 1920s-era speakeasy inspired by the F. Scott Fitzgerald book that epitomises the period, and its two film adaptations. If you wanted to be an extra on Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby but didn't get the chance, this is the next best thing.
At The Gatsby Gamble, attendees will work their way through an evening of games and mysteries, all keeping with the Gatsby theme. It's a choose-your-own-adventure kind of night, with clues to collect, puzzles to be solved and surprises to be had. Pretending you're Leonardo DiCaprio or Carey Mulligan — or Robert Redford and Mia Farrow — is perfectly understandable.
