Moises Kaufman, author of The Laramie Project, brings to life poet and author Oscar Wilde and the public trials that ruined him. Wilde, on trial for “gross indecency,” was at the height of his fame as the author of The Importance of Being Earnest and “The Picture of Dorian Gray.”  He first treated the trials as if they were theatre, but later found himself fighting for his freedom and his life.  Using real quotes and transcripts from the courtroom, Gross Indecency shows a man having to defend himself -- and his art -- against a society's intolerance.
