Excerpt from West Moon Street

Read Full Reviews

“Oscar Wilde’s short story Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime is a clever mystery, written to indict the fate industry with whom late-19th-century aristocrats seemed so enthralled. The writer Rob Urbinati has molded the story into a briskly paced comedy of manners true to its author’s greater spirit. A complete delight!”

- The New York Times

“Urbinati’s adaptation is deft, using the source material to its fullest and beautifully fleshing out several minor characters only alluded to in the original story.”

- Backstage

“Rob Urbinati has done a truly marvelous thing. He’s turned an infrequently read Oscar Wilde short story into a play that improves on the original. A Wilde ride indeed!”

- The New York Blade
