Jennifer Saunders returned to the West End stage for the first time in more than 20 years to take the role of The Duchess of Berwick in Kathy Burke‘s production of Oscar Wilde’s epigram-stuffed social comedy.

Kevin Bishop plays Lord Darlington, while double Olivier Award-winner Samantha Spiro is cast as Mrs Erlynne, the mysterious “woman with a past”.  This was the second production in Dominic Dromgoole‘s Classic Spring Theatre Company’s year-long season of Oscar Wilde at London’s Vaudeville Theatre and followed the highly successful A Woman of No Importance.
