Matthew Bourne's Dorian Gray at the Lowry, Salford, Gtr Manchester
21 October 2009: Matthew Bourne's Dorian Gray at the Lowry
This is a must-see for all fans of Matthew Bourne's dance company.
Matthew Bourne's latest creation comes to The Lowry after sell-out success in London and Edinburgh.
Oscar Wilde's gothic fable becomes a darkly seductive dance theatre event from master storyteller Matthew Bourne. Set in the image obsessed world of contemporary art and politics, this black fairy tale tells the story of an exceptionally alluring young man who makes a pact with the devil.
Amongst London's beautiful people, Dorian Gray the ‘It Boy' - an icon of beauty and truth in an increasingly ugly world. The destructive power of beauty, the blind pursuit of pleasure and the darkness and corruption that lie beneath the charming façade, the themes behind Wilde's cautionary tale, have never been more timely.
Dorian Gray follows the phenomenal success of New Adventures' productions of Matthew Bourne's work, all of which have appeared at The Lowry, including Edward Scissorhands, The Car Man, Nutcracker! and the legendary Swan Lake.
‘Dorian Gray is Bourne again. A 21st-century makeover that works astoundingly well.' ***** Metro
‘A beautiful and perfect, wordless essay on these lives and times.' **** The Independent
‘Fantastically exciting, imaginative, gripping and thrilling. Like the original it is sexy, dizzying, tumultuous, frightening and profoundly moral. You will be swept away.' Stephen Fry
**** Daily Express
**** London Paper
