Original Playwright - Luigi Pirandello
Synopsis:
Actor Richard McMillan is Henry, a man of enormous wealth and privilege, who believes he is the eleventh-century Holy Roman Emperor and German King Henry IV. A fortress is built and actors are hired to carry out his fantasy. But is he mad or are we? Adapted from Luigi Pirandello's Enrico IV, Kilroy's version transports Pirandello's main character into twenty-first-century Hollywood with sensationally dramatic results.

Synopsis:
Set in 1944 in the middle of the Second World War, this play depicts Lord Alfred Douglas, Oscar Wilde's beloved Bosie, overcome with memories of the notorious love affair which rocked the world, as he struggles to examine the mysteries of his own identity. Forever linked to Wilde... the scandal... the violent trials which led to Wilde's imprisonment... the guilt... and the subsequent half century he lived after the death of Wilde whilst alone in Paris in 1900, Bosie searches for the very personal meaning of a life foreer the subject of endless conjecture. As his wife, Olive, lies dying upstairs, Lord Douglas displays unexpected depths of feelings, as he copes with his marriage, his memories of Oscar, and the tragic fate of his only son.

Notes:
Oscar Wilde. Lord Alfred Douglas
Secret Fall Of Constance Wilde, The
Constance Wilde is allowed, for once, to steal the spotlight from Oscar's decline and fall, in a play that translates her own tragedy into a stylised emotional investigation. A silent faceless chorus in pin stripes poses for every episode of her disillusionment forming part of a striking visual language which aims to bring alive the overpowering emotions that allowed her both to condemn and to forgive her husband.
