ABOUT ABOUT

Wilde at his satirical best in the comic thriller that made him an overnight star. Be ready for jealousy, intrigue, twists, turns, and massive doses of Wildean wit.

Young, rich, beautiful and newly married, Lady Windermere seems to have it all. That is until she is visited by one of London society’s most notorious gossips, who suggests that not only is her husband having an affair with the mysterious Mrs. Erlynne, but that this woman is about to turn up to Lady Windermere’s 21st birthday ball. Soon nothing is as it seems in this comic thriller, full of intrigue, jealousy and brilliant one-liners.

The cast includes Claire Ludwig as Lady Windermere, Benjamin Summers as Lord Windermere, Jason Newman as Lord Darlington, Suzanne Balling as Mrs. Erlynne, Michael Stuart as Lord Augustus, Cyndi Williams as the Duchess of Berwick, Ben Wolfe as Cecil Graham, Christopher Loveless as Mr. Dumby, Jessica Hughes as Lady Agatha, Craig Kanne as Parker, Chase Brewer as Mr. Hopper, and A. Skola Summers as Lady Plymdale.

Directed by Lara Toner, costumes are by Buffy Manners, set design by Lara Toner, lighting design by Don Day, and sound design by Bryan Schneider.
