The Picture of Dorian Gray (Dramatized)

By: Oscar Wilde

Narrated by: Pauline Brailsford, Thomas Carroll, Colleen Crimmins, Martin Duffy, Steve Juergens, Roger Mueller, Jim Ortlieb

A full-cast dramatization of one of the great classics of contemporary Western literature. Dorian Gray, an effete young gentleman, is the subject of a striking portrait by the artist Basil Hallward. Gray’s narcissism is awakened, and he embraces a lifestyle of hedonism and casual cruelties. Increasingly consumed by his own vanity, he is forced to confront his true inner-self, in a manner that is as shocking as it is terrifying.

An L.A. Theatre Works full-cast performance featuring: Steve Juergens, Jim Ortlieb, Colleen Crimmins, Roger Mueller, Thomas Carroll, Paulin Brailsford, Rush Pearson, and Martin Duffy. Directed by Terry McCabe and Jeffrey Ortmann.

Critic reviews

"Based on the theatrical adaptation by Paul Edwards, this interpretation unleashes all the dramatic tension of the story without ignoring the necessary plot points. Steve Juergens gives a convincing performance as the haughty Gray. He speaks with clear emotion and masterfully conveys all the cruelty and conceit of the infamous protagonist. The supporting cast bolsters the production with a range of narrative and character roles. This audiobook transports the reader into the front row of the theater." ( AudioFile)

Good Old Fashioned Radio Theater

I grew up as kid listening to radio theater and enjoyed this like I enjoyed the ones from when I was a kid.
