Description Author Thomas Mann is now recognised as a great erotic writer, a man whose language was saturated by his homosexuality. Nowhere is this more apparent than in Death in Venice, where he created one of the twentieth century's great gay icons, Tadzio. Barry Lowe's new play revisits Mann's Venice, where the worship of beauty is its own reward.
