De Profundis


This event is in the past. This is an archive page for reference.

During his sentence in Reading Gaol, Oscar Wilde wrote a letter to his lover, agonising over the lack of contact.

It is perhaps the greatest love letter ever written, filled with a torrent of accusation, passion and eventually reconciliation.

A century later De Profundis remains an astonishing tour-de-force of self analysis.

Reviving his National Theatre performance from 2000, Corin Redgrave reads De Profundis.

The director is Richard Nelson.
