“Salome” — a provocative new production by Gesher Theatre

From 30 September to 11 October, London will host the premiere of Salomé — a dark and mesmerising tragedy of power, passion, and a fateful dance that changed the course of history. This production by Gesher Theatre, based on Oscar Wilde’s play, brings the biblical tale to life in a richly poetic and evocative interpretation.

Set in 1st-century Judea, the story follows young Salomé who, under pressure from her mother Herodias, performs her infamous dance for King Herod — and makes an unthinkable demand: the head of John the Baptist. The tale becomes a haunting metaphor for seduction, power, and desperate obsession.

This bold and visually hypnotic take on a classic explores the boundaries of desire and the price one must pay to fulfil it. Age guidance: 14+.
