A mysterious, foreboding prophet (John the Baptist) descends upon King Herod’s palace. Distressed by this, the King seeks relief in watching the captivating Princess Salomé perform a sultry dance. She agrees only when he swears to give her anything she wants. Ultimately, she desires the prophet’s head on a platter—as he is the only man unfazed by her beauty. Don’t miss Wilde’s exotic, controversial take on this ancient biblical tale of lechery, power, and deception.
