"Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde is a piece of theatre that uses first-hand accounts of the 1895 Oscar Wilde trials to examine the origins of the homosexual identity and the male identity and questions where, how, and if they intersect in historical and contemporary discourse," press notes state. "Through the compilation of diaries, court records, news sources, and more, Kaufman has created for us a fast-paced portrayal of Wilde’s fall from fame and the bigger social repercussions that followed. This production will use various styles of movement and music in a collaborative rehearsal process to discover the timelessness of Wilde's story and how it still functions with and relates to our social climate today."

The creative team includes Jason Sherwood (set), Mia Cook and Danielle Mahoney (costumes), Joanna Emmott (lighting) and Dan Crowley (sound). The production stage manager is Mariliza Parker.
