THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY
A modern-day reimagining of Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray, adapted by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.
Drugs. Sex. Money. Excess. Narcissism. Moral depravity.
Oscar Wilde’s gothic tale of a young man seeking eternal youth is as vital as ever in this gritty, provocative adaptation by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa. Transplanting Wilde’s characters from the 18th to the 21st century, this modern-day adaptation holds up a mirror to the vanity and hedonism still prevalent in today’s society.
When an artist paints a striking portrait of a handsome young man, the subject, Dorian Gray, strikes a deal with the devil: his portrait will age, while he remains forever young. Thus, as Dorian sinks ever deeper into depravity, his physical appearance remains unaltered. Meanwhile, the decomposing portrait is gradually warped and twisted into a horrific depiction of one man’s descent into darkness! A masterpiece of Victorian literature turned bold and bloody contemporary thriller, The Picture of Dorian Gray remains as shocking and scandalous as the day it was written!
