About The Australian Ballet Oscar©
Hailed as a “trailblazing masterpiece” (Australian Arts Review), Oscar© is a new story ballet created by two-time Tony winner Christopher Wheeldon (MJ The Musical, An American in Paris). The Australian Ballet brings the tragic and romantic story of brilliant humorist Oscar Wilde to vivid life, set to a sweeping score by Joby Talbot played live by the 48-piece Orchestra of St. Luke’s.
In 1895 England, while imprisoned for "gross indecency,” Wilde revisits the glittering world he once inhabited—his fame, his love affairs, and ultimately his downfall. Weaving together elements of Wilde’s The Nightingale and the Rose and The Picture of Dorian Gray, the ballet creates a richly layered portrait of the artist through shimmering sets, elegant costumes, and remarkably theatrical dancers. Oscar© anchors this season’s Artists at the Center series spotlighting David Hallberg, Artistic Director of The Australian Ballet and former American Ballet Theatre star. The Australian Ballet also appears in the 2026 Fall for Dance Festival and a Studio 5 event.
