Oscar Wilde Season Live: An Ideal Husband

Director
Jonathan Church
Certificate
12A
Running Time
150 mins

A happily married, rising politician with a dodgy past. An opportunistic adventuress who knows where the bodies are buried. A trysting cad who weaves a tangled web of lies to protect his chum. It could have been plucked from yesterday’s tabloids, but Oscar Wilde’s comedy is more than a century old.

The third play in the Classic Spring Theatre Company’s year-long Oscar Wilde Season at the Vaudeville Theatre is directed by Jonathan Church with an ensemble cast including father and son Edward and Freddie Fox, Olivier Award-nominated Frances Barber, Olivier Award-winner Nathaniel Parker, Sally Bretton and Susan Hampshire.
