About Ruth N. Halls
“Deliriously funny…An Ideal Husband speaks in a language that remains forever fresh.”
–The New York Times

 

By Oscar Wilde
Directed by Fontaine Syer

Is our character set by our actions? Or are forgiveness and change possible for us imperfect humans? In order to profit from a political pork barrel project, a blackmailer accuses a public servant of insider trading. Will his trusting, loving, righteous wife forgive him? Will his career, her reputation, and their marriage be destroyed? This thoroughly contemporary and deliciously clever play still resonates today, using farcical humor and witty satire to insightfully dissect political and moral issues everyone will recognize. Oscar Wilde writes stylish, hilarious comedy with true substance, allowing his outrageous, engaging, articulate characters to lampoon their own society.
