Bill Kenwright follows up his recent critically acclaimed revivals of Oscar Wilde’s plays with Trevor Baxter’s adaptation of this celebrated story.

Fresh from success in Any Dream Will Do and the title role in Joseph in the West End, the multi-talented Lee Mead makes his comedy debut starring as Lord Arthur. Opposite him, an all-star cast is led by the legendary Gary Wilmot (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Me and My Girl), Kate O’Mara (Dynasty, Bad Girls), David Ross (The Green Green Grass), Derren Nesbitt (Special Branch, Where Eagles Dare) and Louisa Clein (Judge John Deed).

Lord Arthur Savile is deliriously happy: a pillar of Victorian society, he’s on the verge of marriage to the lovely Sybil. Then an encounter with a clairvoyant reveals that he is destined to commit murder, and Arthur decides that to protect his future wife, he must commit this bloody deed before he marries. As he sets about deciding which of his family and friends could be most conveniently eliminated, chaos predictably ensues…

This delightfully daffy comedy has a deceptive vein of black humour, sprinkled with Wilde’s inimitable one-liners.
