Description Oscar Wilde’s blazing wit gets a stylish new production from award-winning director and comedy afficionado Sarah Giles, who last had us in stitches with the madcap mid-century farce No Pay? No Way!. Sparkling with devilish quips and lush period design, this gold-standard comedy sings with contemporary relevance, shrewdly lampooning the snobbery and hypocrisy of extreme wealth and excess.
