Publisher's summary

A lord, his wife, her admirer and an infamous blackmailer converge in the irreverent satire that launched Wilde's succession of classic social comedies. This delicious comic feast serves up a scandal about good girls, bad husbands and hilarious hypocrisy - utterly contemporary and divinely funny.

Oscar Wilde ftw

I always forget how much I love Oscar Wilde until I experience him again. This particular play had me cracking up like an idiot on an airplane, so choose your listening location wisely 😉

It's a full cast production and a full Wilde parody, so be prepared for the ridiculous.

I hadn't heard much about this play, but as I listened, I discovered that most of his famous quotes are pulled from this work.

Delightful

Any additional comments?

A delightful performance of the classic play, I found it entertaining but I didn't ~love~ it as much as some of Wilde's other works I've read (a.k.a. listened to) this year.

Loved it!

Wilde at his glorious best, well performed, I’d love to have seen it rather than just listening but either way, this is the very best of his comedies. SUBLIME

Very Badly Edited

Very well performed by all of the actors. Very badly edited, very crudely cut, which really let the cast and the overall production down.

Fantastic cast

Very well performed by the actors, which made all the difference between being a dated play to being suitable for modern day audiences.
