Synopsis: Step into a world of beauty, temptation, and moral unraveling. When the charming young Dorian Gray makes a fateful wish—that his portrait should age while he remains forever young—he’s swept into a seductive spiral of indulgence and corruption. As Dorian’s outward perfection stays untouched, the hidden portrait grows twisted with every sin he commits. What begins as a flirtation with vanity becomes a chilling descent into obsession, secrets, and the high cost of eternal youth. Darkly elegant and irresistibly theatrical, The Picture of Dorian Gray invites audiences to witness a haunting tale where beauty deceives, pleasure consumes, and the truth can no longer stay hidden.
All characters require English accents.
An intimacy coordinator will be provided for Dorian Gray, Alan Campbell, O***m Den Man and O***m Den Woman
