The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.

It is 1890 in Victorian London, England. A radiantly handsome, impressionable, and wealthy young man is painted by a local London artist. A Faustian pledge to the devil to stay always as young as his portrait begins his dark pursuit of personal pleasure above all else. Led by the charming talk and famous wit of Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian becomes obsessed with beauty, youth, pleasure, and the importance of immediacy. And as the rest of the world ages, Dorian stays youthful. But his portrait, covered in secret in his dark attic, shows his true age, and the horrific result of his terrible transgressions that include a savagely cruel, cold-blooded murder and even more gruesome cover-up.

This beautiful, immersive production was presented in promenade fashion, where audiences moved from scene to scene, following actors and scene changes that transported them through time and place, from a pleasant social affair to a dark, smoky opium den.
