Oscar Wilde’s
Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime

Murder is always a mistake: One should never do anything one cannot talk about after dinner ... A gripping tale of love, honour, duty, fortune-telling and murder! Adapted by Martin Harris of Rocket Theatre, this hilarious retelling of the classic story revels in the wit of Wilde, while borrowing (rather cheekily) from Wodehouse, to create a wicked black comedy that positively fizzes with fun. Join Lord Arthur and his valet for an evening of ludicrous indulgence. Dare you spend time in the company of Lord Savile? Rocket Theatre are an established award-winning company that tours to venues across the UK.

Martin Harris’ script, written for just two characters, has wisely kept many of Wilde’s unforgettable lines. The result is an hilariously funny black comedy … A cracking production of a witty play, which brings pace and energy to the piece – What’s On Stage
