This paper examines Mark Jackson’s Salomania, a 2012 stage representation of the 1918 libel trial by a Canadian dancer, Maud Allan, against the British Member of Parliament, Noel Pemberton Billing. Jackson’s play is significant not only as an important addition to the documentary trial plays, but also as a further contribution to the dramatic literature about the trials of Oscar Wilde, with which it creates an indirect dialog. The theatrical and social background of the trial is considered first, in order to gain an understanding of the context, the characters, and the issues involved. As with Wilde’s trials, Allan’s attempt to clear her name was overturned by allegations of sexual perversity, in the “trial of the century,” which revealed mismanagement of the British legal system and the absurdity of attempts to make art legally accountable. The ensuing courtroom drama is reconstructed by Jackson by taking selections from contemporary court transcripts. Salomania probes the roots of Victorian, Edwardian, and (by implication) contemporary society, questioning how prejudice, homophobia, and xenophobia can occur in the courtroom of a civilized society. Jackson offers little commentary of his own on the issue, but makes his point by juxtaposing the horrors of trench warfare in World War I with this concurrent travesty of justice on the home front. In showing Wilde and Allan as sacrificial victims of cultural, legal, and homophobic hysteria, Salomania offers a timeless cultural investigation into the relationship between art, law, and society.
