Beneath the sparkle of Edwardian London Society lies an undercurrent
of deception, instigated by Mrs Cheveley, the infamous scarlet woman.
Living in this world is the pure-hearted Lady Chiltern and her ideal
husband, a politician beyond reproach … if there is such a
being. “Nowadays, with our modern mania for morality, everyone
has to pose as a paragon of purity, incorruptibility, and all the
other seven deadly virtues.” This show is a dazzling blend
of comedy and morality, sex and politics, exploring human frailty
and social hypocrisy. Using Oscar Wilde’s signature wit and
style, An Ideal Husband has all the sumptuous elegance you expect.
