About The Picture of Dorian Gray

Oscar Wilde's timeless text is revolutionized by Kip Williams' celebrated collision of form employing an explosive interplay of video and theater through an intricately choreographed collection of on-stage cameras bringing to life a dizzying 26 characters, each brought to life by Sarah Snook.


Marking her hotly anticipated Broadway debut following her critically acclaimed and Olivier Award-winning performance in the London premiere production of The Picture of Dorian Gray, Australian star Sarah Snook reprises her searing portrayal of all 26 characters in the production.
