Episode Synopsis

Emmy and Golden Glob Award winner Sarah Snook makes her Broadway debut in “The Picture of Dorian Gray.” Adapted by Kip Williams from the Oscar Wilde novel, this staging of “Dorian Gray” is a one-person show. Snook plays 26 characters in one wild ride.The play bowed in London's West End in 2024, and Snook took home the Olivier Award for Best Actress. She's got a herculean task, but why did it make sense to Williams to create a solo play out of this dynamic book? How do he and Snook accomplish it? Broadway News' Ruthie Fierberg spoke to Williams (who also directs the production) and Snook about the characters, the use of live performance, live simulcast and pre-recorded video, and to give audience a sense of what to expect from the production.Related content:The women on Broadway are sexy and owning it
