About the Show

The AlphaNYC Theater Company presents this treasured classic from 1895 that picks apart both the soaring landscape of society and the most sheltered of relationships: marriage.

The legendary wit of Oscar Wilde creates a funny yet emotionally resonant comedy that weaves together blackmail, political corruption and public and private honor in late 19th-century England. It's the story of a man who seems to have the perfect life: a beautiful wife, a bright political future, a promising family, and engaging friends. But an indiscretion from his past resurfaces, threatening to bring it all crashing down.

Clever, Delightful, Funny, Must see, Original

See it if you like Oscar Wilde or want to try his plays. They're oldies but goodies. It's funny with a great plot.

Slow, Funny

See it if I saw this off broadway. Top notch actors but story was slow. If wasn’t for Marlo Thomas would have been a bust.

Don't see it if Someone great isn’t in it cause the play itself isn’t worth it.
