A
event
on Friday 20th April. The event starts at 19:30pm.
Dorian Gray is a beautiful man. This, along with his callousness is what defines him.
When Basil Hallward paints his likeness, Dorian becomes infatuated with how he looks in all his youth and glory - so much so that he forges a sinister pact to retain his looks in exchange for his soul.
Set in the decadence and hedonism of Victorian London, The Picture of Dorian Gray, is a shrewd look into the fading morality of society, but perhaps is even more relevant in today's world than it was when initially penned by Oscar Wilde.
Join Schoolhouse Productions, the Alma's in-house company, for their fourth production, after their sell-out A Doll's House (March 2017) and Abigail's Party (Nov 2017, Jan 2018).
Praise for Schoolhouse;

Oscar Wilde
