"Lady Windermere's Fan" was Oscar Wilde's first produced play, and it was an instant success on the London stage. Chronicling a series of misunderstandings and deceptions in the high society world of Victorian London, critics and audiences alike were charmed by Wilde's trademark wit and intelligence.
On the eve of Lady Windermere's 21st Birthday, she receives a new fan from her husband of two years. Lady Windermere considers leaving her husband when she discovers that he may be unfaithful with another woman. She confronts her husband but he instead invites the other woman, the beautiful and mysterious Mrs. Erlynne, to her birthday ball. The revelations that follow turn Lady Windermere's world upside down.
