Why Watch This

“Director Jonathan Church delivers a beautifully paced interpretation of Wilde's classic 1895 play, emphasizing its surprisingly modern political commentary on the thin line between public virtue and private corruption. The production features real-life father and son Edward Fox and Freddie Fox, who bring natural comedic chemistry to the stage alongside strong performances from Frances Barber and the wider cast.”
