About

This bold new adaptation of the classic novel celebrates Wilde’s dazzling wit and dark imagination. Stylish and unsettlingly thrilling, The Picture of Dorian Gray plunges audiences into a world where charm is currency and the truth always exacts its price.

In a society obsessed with youth and beauty, Dorian Gray is offered the ultimate prize: eternal perfection — but perfection comes at a price, one that must be paid in blood. As Oscar Wilde asks: “What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?”
