Politics. Scandals. Romance, gone Wilde! An Ideal Husband, Oscar Wildes delightful and wickedly-witty comedy, remains one of the most famous and popular in history. The respectable Sir Robert Chiltern is a successful Government minister, well-off and with a loving wife. All is threatened when the conniving Mrs. Cheveley appears with damning evidence of a past misdeed and threatens blackmail. His best friend comes to his aid - and through a number of comedic entanglements tries to lead Robert and his family out of harm and disgrace. But there are others who have desires and ambitions all their own. While written in 1895, underneath a surface of frivolity and appearances, there lies countless elements of todays current times and affairs: feminism, blackmail, political corruption, morality and mistrust, the psychology of love and forgiveness, are all served up with the effervescent Wilde wit, where in a course of just twenty-four hours, this cocktail mix of characters learns what it means to be an ideal husband. February 18 March 13. Thursday - Saturday 8:00 pm. Sunday 3:00 pm.
