The Wilde side of Dublin

To celebrate Dublin Pride, LGBTQ drama ensemble Acting Out are staging ‘Gross Indecency’, a play about Dublin’s most famous gay man.

The play, by Moises Kaufman, weaves together original transcripts from the trials which ended Oscar Wilde’s career. Contemporary Ireland may recognise shades of the present in Victorian ‘moral outrages’ against homosexuals, alternative lifestyles and the dance of celebrity on the line between social life and social death.

Performances take place from Wednesday June 27 to 29 in Outhouse on Dublin’s Capel Street. Tickets are available from €6. To book yours in advance call 0851289130.
