The Picture of Doreen Gray

About

Friday 26 February 2016 at 8pm

Be careful what you wish for!

Celebrity presenter Doreen Gray has it all – a drive time radio show, a high ratings lifestyle programme and a career that is the envy of all her old chums. But hitting 50 she finds her face no longer fits the bill.

At a school reunion Doreen stumbles across a youthful self portrait and makes a dark and dreadful pact with the picture that will come back to haunt her…

LipService take Oscar Wilde’s Dorian Gray and give it a modern twist to observe the hazards of ageing in the public eye. Featuring film, fun and LipService’s own unique blend of the surreal and downright silly!

In 2015 LipService is celebrating 30 years of making award winning comedy. Maggie Fox & Sue Ryding founded the company in 1985 and have created 18 original stage plays winning four prestigious awards, including the Stage Door Foundation Award for Excellence in 2014.

“Comedy gold at its best” The Public Reviews

“Funny as hell. Doreen Gray isn’t just silly characters either. The themes about women in the media are some of the play’s real virtues” Northern Soul

“The Laurel and Hardy of literary deconstruction” The Independent
