Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime

Love, murder and the supernatural in Wilde’s black comedy. Lord Arthur Savile’s engagement to the lovely Sybil Merton looks like it will last forever – all because Lady Merton’s chiromantist, Podgers, has read Lord Arthur’s palm and foretold that he would commit murder. Lord Arthur desires a blissful married life and therefore, quite natually feels duty bound to get the murder over the first.
