Just got home from 'getting in' to the Theatre Brett in Vienna, and after two weeks of rehearsing, the real work starts now! Everyone at Open House Theatre company is in serious need of another cup of tea...

Oscar Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Gray" (adapted for the stage by Alan Burgon) has one more week of rehearsals, but we have plenty of light and sound tech to get done before previews on Friday.

I'm very lucky to be playing Dorian, a wonderfully complex role penned exquisitely by the masterful Wilde. Whilst it is a fantastical and emotionally rich rollercoaster of a story, I believe that there are so many issues and themes that are pertinent to people in this day and age. Dorian is a wonderful character to have the chance to experience as an actor, and if anyone is passing by Vienna(!) in the next few weeks then we'd love to have you sharing the experience with us of course.

More to follow,

Tom Middler

The Picture of Dorian Gray runs from February 15th to March 8th, Theater Brett, Wien. www.openhousetheatre.at
