Dorian Gray. A charming young man with the unique ability to influence others. He longs to take advantage of every opportunity that the world may offer him, to experience every pleasure. He throws himself into his own chasm, taking everyone with him regardless of the past, future or people around him. Who would not want to live here and now - forever? Dorian's innocent forever-young face conceals a terrifying secret... 

Wilde's famous novel as a contemporary theatrical parable about a desperate grope in the dark of those who no longer deal with how to survive, but how to live. About us who seek fulfilment in a time when everything is possible and us who so often yield to "Experince your own life!".

A classic from 1891 directed by Martina Kinská with Miřenka Čechová's choreoraphy and Vladimír Franz's music.
