Kerry Ashton and "The Wilde Spirit"          


Watch Clips from THE WILDE SPIRIT
Including Clips from Off-Broadway & Provincetown

The above video clips from THE WILDE SPIRIT, which feature Kerry Ashton as Oscar Wilde talking about and then performing from his novel, "The Picture of Dorian Gray," are taken from OFF-BROADWAY in NYC 1996, and from two productions of the play in PROVINCETOWN, MA, in 1990 and in 1992, the only time Ashton sang the songs from the play, rather than talking his way thru the lyrics much the way Rex Harrison did in MY FAIR LADY. Each clip showcases the differences in design and approach between the three different performance DVDs, all of which will soon be available for purchase.  This clip runs 8 minutes, 58 seconds.
