From GetSurrey.co.uk:

“OSCAR Wilde’s study of erotic obsession, Salome, is to be staged at Guildford’s Yvonne Arnaud Theatre from Tuesday to Saturday, May 18 to 22.

The savage power of ancient myth collides with 20th century decadence in Wilde’s astonishing verse tragedy, a rarely seen masterpiece.

Salome, step-daughter of King Herod, agrees to perform the mysterious dance of the seven veils but demands, in return, the head of the king’s most infamous prisoner – John the Baptist.

Wilde’s Salome is a dazzling, shocking piece of storytelling. It is fragile, savage and shimmeringly beautiful, rendered in exquisite poetry and unforgettable theatrical images.”
