Olwen Fouéré created the title role in the 1988 Gate Theatre production of Wilde's Salomé directed by Steven Berkoff which premiered in Dublin and played to spectacular acclaim at the Edinburgh International Festival 1989. Fouéré reprised her role in 1990 at the Spoleto Festival, Charleston, South Carolina and two further iterations at the Gate Theatre until 1993.
