Vol #016: The Pictures of Dorian Gray
August 2, 2023 10:00pm
In Volume #16, we contemplate existence where the consequences of our actions is deferred onto an inanimate object. The Portrait of Dorian Gray is a classic gothic novel written by Oscar Wylde and published in 1891. At the time it was not met with much fanfare, in fact, more with ill repute. It has since become one of the great tragic gothic novels of all time, one who's mark still echoes resoundingly in today's pop culture. You see it primarily in the behavior of actors and pop stars. Narcissism and exploitation of those around them and an expectation that the consequences of their actions will not come home to roost.
This is a musical expose that tours that subject matter and provides a great soundtrack for this evening's show.
