Double dual identities, a domineering matriarch, and a mysterious handbag spark hilarious confusion in Oscar Wilde’s delightful comedy of manners.

Follow the antics of two wildly eligible bachelors attempting to escape the constraints of Victorian society in their pursuit of love, marriage, and happiness – though not necessarily in that order. Wilde’s witty comic masterpiece is peppered with an array of deliciously eccentric characters and seasoned with his notoriously biting social commentary. Come see why critics have called it the funniest play ever written.
