"Gross Indecency" Los Angeles 1998
Sep. 28th, 2023 08:35 pmSo I was kind of bummed that amongst my random assortment of FK stuff from the 90s, I did not find the newspaper clipping about a 1998 production of the play "Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde" that ran in Los Angeles.
Why did I think this might be with the FK stuff? Because Geraint Wyn Davies was in the play. And since I was a fan, lived in the area, and was an avid theater-goer, I went to see it.
I remembered clipping an article about the play and there being a color photo of all the cast. Alas, the clipping does not seem to have been a survivor among the things I kept across the decades. But then I thought, maybe I can find it in a newspaper archive online
Indeed, I did.
Unfortunately, the archived version is basically a black and white photocopy. This is fine for the article text, but terrible for the cast photo. It's definitely the photo I remember, but really, just abysmal quality. Ah well.
( But if you're curious about the play, here's an old newspaper archive piece about it. For any Lost, Person of Interest, or Evil fans out there, Michael Emerson played Oscar Wilde. )
