Dorian Gray

From the producer of award winning and highly recommended* Fuente Ovejuna comes Dorian Gray, a mixed-media physical theatre show 7th-26th Oct!

Poise Performance presents Dorian Gray, a cross-media, multi-sensorial and multi-disciplinary adaptation of Oscar Wilde's controversial only novel. This vibrant company will delight you with a re-imagined and re-invented use of this classical text, which includes dance, film, music and art.

When Dorian Gray first sets eyes on his portrait, he becomes captivated by his own good looks. Inspired to forfeit his very soul to retain his beauty, he sets himself on a downward spiral into the darkest corners of London life.

With only three performers rotating roles, and in a mixed-media, physical and multi-sensorial retelling of Oscar Wilde's controversial only novel, Poise Performance presents a Dorian Gray completely removed from the stylings of the 19th century theatre, guiding audiences through the conflictive and seedy world of duality, excess and hedonism.

This is the Dorian Gray as you've never seen it before.

[Local charities and members of the community have lent their creativity, voices and skills to this production.]
