Inspired by Oscar Wildes The Picture of Dorian Gray, DORIAN: The Musical is an exciting new adaptation that gives the Gothic tale a Glam, modern twist with a newly composed score that sears through the action, propelled by influences from Bowie to Brecht. A modern, queer fairy-tale, it challenges perceptions of gender and identity and the dangers of social media in a world where youth and immortality are thrust into the spotlight. The iconic lead role of Dorian will be played by Alfie Friedman (The Undeclared War on Channel 4; The Witches of Eastwick, Sondheim Theatre; Legacy, Menier Chocolate Factory; Laughing Boy, Jermyn Street Theatre and Theatre Royal Bath). Dorian Gray. A lonely boy, bereft of love, wants the world to notice him. When he becomes an overnight sensation, he discovers that all his wishes have come true. So why does his life seem so empty? Charismatic music producer, the Lord Harry Wotton, wants Dorian to be immortal. Baz Hallward, the celebrity photographer, wants to capture his soul. Sibyl Vane, a young opera singer, just wants to love him. But Dorian feels cursed. He believes he has sold his soul. He is the King of Black Hearts. Trapped in his eternal youth he wants to change the course of his life. Is it too late?
