The Fitzgeralds of St. Paul is a two-person, one act full-length chamber musical about F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, celebrated literary figures of the Jazz Age. Part memory play, part gin-soaked vaudeville, The Fitzgeralds of St. Paul is a fictionalized, hyper-theatrical imagining of an infamous marriage – an evening in which two tragic, larger-than-life icons of a bygone era finally get to tell their story.

​

The Fitzgeralds of St. Paul will be presented in concert at Adelphi University on September 9, 2023 at 3 PM as part of the Larson Legacy series.  Tickets and more info can be found here.
