winner The Picture of Dorian Gray 2020 single work drama'Oscar Wilde’s century-old moral fable, packed with witticisms, is as devilishly wicked today as on its debut.
'Seeing himself in a dazzling new portrait, an exquisite young man makes a Faustian wish for eternal youth. Dorian Gray throws himself into a life of wanton luxury drifting from the pampered salons of Victorian London to the darkest recesses of the capital, and revelling in the splendour of his beauty which remains forever golden. Meanwhile, the portrait – banished to an attic – becomes more and more grotesque.'
