Genesian Theatre: Lord Arthur Savile's Crime by Oscar Wilde

I (Dale) will be going along to the Constance Cox adaptation of the classic tale by Oscar Wilde, Lord Arthur Savile's Crime.

First published in 1887, the story introduces Lord Arthur Savile, who, after a palm reading, is told that he is destined to commit murder.

If he *must* murder someone, surely it is better for him to select someone now, rather than risk the well-being of people he loves. If he doesn't murder someone now, perhaps he will be at risk of murdering his future wife. Murdering someone now, perhaps, becomes the right thing to do.

I have bought a ticket for the matinee performance at the Genesian on Sunday June 1 at 4.30pm. If interested, please buy your own ticket online, and let me know you will be there, so we can meet up and chat about the play afterwards. There are several nice pubs nearby.
