We’re thrilled to be a partner venue for the new digital production of The Picture of Dorian Gray co-produced by The Barn Theatre, Lawrence Batley Theatre, New Wolsey Theatre, Oxford Playhouse and Theatr Clwyd.
The full cast includes Fionn Whitehead, as Dorian Gray, Alfred Enoch as Harry Wooton, Joanna Lumley as Lady Narborough, Watermill Ensemble member Emma McDonald as Sibyl Vane and Russell Tovey as Basil Hallward with Stephen Fry as the Interviewer.
In this brand-new adaptation, Oscar Wilde’s Faustian tale is brought into a world of Instagram, Facebook and dating apps. In a profile pic-obsessed, filter-fixated world where online and reality blur, influencer Dorian Gray makes a deal. For his social star never to fade. For the perfect self he broadcasts to the world to always remain. But as his mental health starts to decline, as corruption and murderous depravity start to creep into his world, the true and horrific cost of his deal will soon need to be met.
Video On Demand performances are available from Tuesday 16 March to Wednesday 31 March Performances will be fully captioned. Tickets are £12 and include a digital programme The Watermill is proud to be a partner venue for The Picture of Dorian Gray.
