The Picture of John Gray, a period piece exploring sexual identity and acceptance and a completely new angle on the story of Oscar Wilde, is playing at The Old Red Lion Theatre, London till Saturday, August 30 from 7.30pm.
In the play, set in 1889, writer C.J. Wilmann offers a challenging, untold story about the circles Wilde moved in and a time when it was, possibly, the most dangerous ever time to be gay in Britain.
Director Gus Miller said: “It’s a big play, spanning the lives of real people across a period of enormous change but it remains, at its heart, a deceptively simple love story. It unearths challenging questions about purpose, acceptance and compromise in love.”
