Synopsis

The Hampstead Theatre's revival of David Hare's play The Judas Kiss, starring Rupert Everett as Oscar Wilde, has transferred to the Duke of York's Theatre to rave reviews.

Hare’s 1998 play focuses on two critical moments in Wilde’s last years - the eve of his arrest at the Cadogan Hotel and a night in Naples after his release from two years imprisonment; The Judas Kiss speculates on the consequences of his self-destructive fatalism, betrayal and love without trust.

Directed by Neil Armfield, the cast also includes Cal Macaninch, Ben Hardy, Kirsty Oswald, Alister Cameron and Tom Colley.

Book your tickets today to see Everett as one of literature's most fascinating characters.
