- The Picture of Dorian Gray, adapted and directed by Kip Williams, is one of the most anticipated shows of this season cause it's starring Succession's Sarah Snook who gets to perform 26 characters in this show...on her own! I went to see this show while still in previews and this is what I thought of it! Do you plan to go and see it? Let me know in the comments below!

There are so many fantastic shows on the West End right now, so if you are looking for more inspiration on what to see, this video might help: ua-cam.com/video/cF0-VYZ8uKE/v-deo.htmlsi=TNBd2Xbe3NcvJzLC 🎭☺
I saw it last week! It was her second show in the day and she killed it! I can not even imagine the strain that a performance like that can put on her body and mind. Nevertheless, she kept up the energy and gave a fantastic performance! What I do have to say though about the play in general is that is sort of dragged during the second to third act. I feel like some long emotional confrontations could be lessened and replaced by snappier, quicker dialogue. I guess the transition wasn’t paced well. Other than that, the finale is great. I love watching a show where both the start and the end are great. The standing ovation at the end could have lasted for hours! She was magic!
She is incredible! Her acting skills and focus throughout the show are so impressive! Can't imagine how it feels doing that 2 times a day! I do agree with you, there were a few moments after the interval where I was also catching myself wondering off a bit. Regardless, it still felt like a unique show to see and even if it's just for her performance, it would've been worth it!
I watched your review for the first time. This was a comprehensive review. Thank you.
Thanks so much! glad to hear you enjoyed it! ☺️
I watched it this week. This was a great show! Got a £49 seat in the Upper Circle really early which was great. The acting and storytelling as well as parallels to modern day with the photo editing work were amazing. I think Snook actually did better in the non-Dorian roles than the lead.
So glad to hear you enjoyed it! It’s pretty unique, isn’t it!? Oh interesting what you say about Sarah…what other shows have you seen her in?
I felt it lacked emotional depth but the play did update the story and it built to a nice ending. Think the play would have done better with 3 actors to carry the whole production
I agree with you…it is impressive seeing one actor doing it all but maybe it wasn’t necessary.
Thank you for this 🙏🏼 Im considering seeing it but will try out the lotteries for a while to maybe save up on a costly ticket. There’s sooo much else I’d like to see that dont offer the luxury of a lottery
So true! There are soooo many great shows atm. Glad I could help! ☺️
@@KristinaEmilyOfficial update - WON IT!!!
I recently saw Nearly Lear which had 1 person do 6 roles (3 in one scene!) which got confusing for me, how was it with this having 26 characters ?
I totally know what you mean, it does sound confusing. Some characters and their interactions were pre-filmed and also there were a few different cameras filming her so different angles meant different characters. And also not all characters are constantly present, there are some smaller parts. It’s actually pretty impressive how clear the character distinction was given there are so many. ☺️ defo check it out if you get a chance, would love to hear what you think!
Ah that’s reassuring thanks, will keep entering the lottery 👍
saw it, think it was mind numbingly terrible
