Sarah Snook to make Broadway debut in 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' in 2025
The Succession star won an Olivier Award in London's West End for starring in the one-person stage adaptation of Oscar Wilde's classic novel.
UPDATE: The Picture of Dorian Gray on Broadway starring Sarah Snook will play the Music Box Theatre beginning March 10, 2025. Opening night is March 25.
Following an award-winning run in London's West End, Succession's Sarah Snook will take her one-woman production of The Picture of Dorian Gray to Broadway in March 2025 at a theatre and dates to be announced. The production will mark her Broadway debut.
Snook first performed The Picture of Dorian Gray in London's West End from February to May of this year. In April, she won the 2024 Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Play for her work, shortly after winning Emmy, Golden Globe, Critics Choice, and Screen Actors Guild Awards for her performance as Siobhan "Shiv" Roy in the hit HBO series Succession.
“It was a singular privilege to bring The Picture of Dorian Gray to life in London, and I am thrilled we will be able to share this astonishing production with audiences in New York,” Snook said in a statement. “This tale of virtue, corruption, vanity and repercussion is an electrifying journey for me as much as for the audiences, and I am filled with anticipation as we continue on this ambitious creative endeavor.”
London Theatre's five-star review of Snook in Dorian Gray reads, "This form-bending, innovative feat of a production and performance will have your jaw on the floor... Everything is an illusion, except for Snook who is giving one of the bravest and most unabashed performances I’ve ever seen onstage."
In The Picture of Dorian Gray, directed and adapted by Kip Williams from Oscar Wilde's novel, Snook plays all 26 roles. The story follows a man who sells his soul to stay young and beautiful forever while a portrait of him ages and displays all his flaws, physical and moral.
Williams's adaptation premiered in Sydney in 2020, starring Jean Norvill, before the show transferred to London.
The creative team for Dorian Gray on Broadway includes set and costume designer Marg Horwell, lighting designer Nick Schlieper, sound designer and composer Clemence Williams, video designer David Bergman, and dramaturg and creative associate Eryn Jean Norvill.
