An Ideal Husband by Oscar Wilde

Description

The L.A. Theatre Works performs plays tailored for a radio format before live audiences. The works are treats for the ear: Each features first-rate performances, rich but not overdone sound effects, evocative background music, expert engineering and the immediacy of an audience’s live responses. AN IDEAL HUSBAND, Oscar Wilde’s 1895 comedy, shows how a good adaptation of a classic play can speak to the present age. Martin Jarvis and director Michael Hackett have slightly streamlined Wilde’s play about a rising politician with a secret in his past whose efforts to prevent exposure call attention to the hypocrisy of holding our leaders to higher standards than we ourselves live by. The large cast handles the witty dialogue with delicacy: Jacqueline Bisset charmingly plays one of dramatic literature’s most polite blackmailers. The insouciance of the performances emphasizes rather than detracts from the play’s serious theme of social hypocrisy. G.H.
