The Olivier and Tony Award-winning Sydney Theatre Company production makes a triumphant homecoming.  

Kip Williams’ global smash hit cine-theatre adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s story returns to Australia after becoming the hottest ticket in town during sold-out runs on the West End and Broadway, where it was hailed as “a triumph” (The New York Times) and “an exhilarating piece of storytelling” (The Hollywood Reporter). Now Melbourne audiences have the chance to see this groundbreaking Sydney Theatre Company production (or see it again), with Nikki Shiels (Rebecca, Sunday) demonstrating why she’s one of Australia's greatest actors, as she is passed the baton from Eryn Jean Norvill and Sarah Snook.  

Prepare to be swept away in an electrifying theatrical kaleidoscope as Shiels, who was the alternate performer during the 2022 Sydney and Melbourne seasons, plays 26 different characters in a highwire feat of performance, stagecraft and technology. This lush and thrilling story of one man’s deal with the devil is “so dazzlingly, technologically ambitious you’ll think at times that you’re gazing into theater’s future” (The Washington Post). 

Don’t miss the thrill of watching a supreme talent walk the tightrope in “a dazzling, dangerous solo show” (★★★★★ The Guardian).
