"L.A. Theatre Works offers only top-notch full-cast recordings, and this Oscar Wilde classic is no exception. It's period satire at its best with a cast including Joanna Going, Roger Rees and Eric Stoltz." --Dallas/Ft. Worth Entertainment Chronicle

"Recommended where audio dramas circulate well." --Library Journal

A lord, his wife, her admirer and an infamous blackmailer converge in the irreverent satire that launched Wilde's succession of classic social comedies. This delicious comic feast serves up a scandal about good girls, bad husbands and hilarious hypocrisy - utterly contemporary and divinely funny.
