Matthew Bourne's Dorian Gray:
New Adventures Dance Theatre

Oscar Wilde's gothic fable becomes a darkly seductive dance theatre event from master storyteller Matthew Bourne. Set in the image obsessed world of contemporary art and politics, this 'black fairytale' tells the story of an exceptionally alluring young man who makes a pact with the devil. Amongst London's beautiful people, Dorian Gray is the 'It Boy' – an icon of beauty and truth in an increasingly ugly world. The destructive power of beauty, the blind pursuit of pleasure and the darkness and corruption that lie beneath the charming facade; the themes behind Wilde's cautionary tale have never been more timely. This production contains adult themes and is not suitable for children.
